Thanks Andreas, at least a workaround.

 

So the following works:

*       Highlight some lines in an attribute browser window
*       Change the focus back to the map canvas
*       Edit -> Copy  (or ctrl C after setting up the shortcut)
*       Paste into any other app

 

What does not work, but used to:

*       Highlight rows in an attribute browser window
*       Ctrl C
*       Paste

 

So it appears that you have to now change focus back to the map canvas before 
copying data to the clipboard.  That’s OK, and it works, but not really that 
intuitive and in my opinion, it would be cool to be able to copy directly to 
the clipboard from the attribute browser window as per previous behaviour 
without having to change focus first.

 

Cheers

Tony

Subject: Re: [Qgis-user] Version 3.14 - Copy and Paste attribute table

 

Hi,

I don't think that this was deliberately changed. I agree that the copy/paste 
functionality to other software is very convenient.

Can you please check in Menu "Settings" --> "Keyboard Shortcuts" --> Sort by 
Shortcut and see if something else might have captured the "Ctrl-C" Shortcut?

Ctrl-C should be assigned to "Copy Features".

I checked in my system (QGIS master) and it seems like when using German 
language, it is properly assigned, but as soon as you switch to English, the 
Shortcut is gone.

But you can easily re-assign the shortcut: Select the Action "Copy Features" 
--> Click the "Change" button and assign the combination "Ctrl+C".

Let us know if this helps. Can you perhaps also open a but report on this so it 
can be fixed for all users?

Thanks,

Andreas

Hi.

I also do that very frequently. Ctrl+C does not work for that anymore.

Now after selecting your features, you have to go to the Edit menu and click 
"Copy features".

Hi All

 

Prior to 3.14 we could simply open an attribute table, select a few rows (or 
atrl A to select all), ctrl-v to copy and then paste into excel or similar.  
Handy for a quick excel filter, or pivot table etc.

 

Just to check that I hadn't gone completely mad, I found an old PC with 3.12 
installed and yes, that is possible.

 

In 3.14 this isn't possible?  I know its easy to export and save as excel, but 
it just takes a lot longer.  Is this by design or have I missed something 
obvious, and if so can somebody help point me in the right direction. 

 

I note from Dr Google that there are issues in 3.14 with copying and pasting 
map features, is this related?

Cheers

Tony
