I get the faulty copy issue 2-3 times a day with FINEST and this is at least a pain killer, I am really sorry that there are cases like @bradvido that still live with the almost unusable copy/paste state. I would like to sum up the fundamental testing conclusions: 1. The FINEST does not solve the issue for anyone completely, it does however "calms down" the frequency of the bug appearance. 2. The "ghost" copy workaround always solves / resets the state of the copy/paste session in any scenario. 3. @bradvido 's testing code is accurate and always reveals the issue, with the FINEST enabled or not. Just use at least 256 iterations to get 1-3 appearances of the bug if FINEST is being used. Reduce the timing to something lower to reduce execution time and repeat if no faulty results. Keep in mind that the case where FINEST will not workaround, test code will reveal the issue clearly from the first 10 iterations. If the FINEST will act as the "frequency reduction workaround" the appearance is random, I estimate an average appearance of 1/50 but that is an empirical mixed conclusion from testing with the test code and real usage observations. I think that in real life I get the bug a little bit sooner and more frequently than the test code, but I cannot be sure. Good luck to the brave contributors. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
