Copying and pasting white space inside the code macro does not work (right click also causes the selection to collapse undesirably)

XMLWordPrintable

      There are a number of issues when copying, cutting, and pasting code within a code block using Chrome, as well as general navigation. For example, I am trying to format some XML. I want to copy the whitespace before one element and paste it in front of another element to get the alignment to display.

      • If I right-click and select copy on the whitespace, the selected text becomes unselected when the context menu appears and I can't copy it. However, I can copy the text with Ctrl-C.
      • If I right-click and select paste, the first time I do this nothing happens. The second time I do it, an underscore is inserted (in contrast, if I do the same thing in IE9, a single space is inserted, regardless of how many spaces I had copied; that is also annoying, but in another way) and the interface locks up. I literally can't do anything in the editor. I have to either save or cancel and start editing again to be able to continue working.
      • If I use Ctrl-V to paste, it skips the not inserting, then inserting an underscore thing: the whole edit interface locks up up from the get-go.

            Hi Rick,

            Thanks for submitting this bug report.

            We want to just let you know that Ctrl+Shift+Left Arrow behaviour will move only a word at a time in chrome on windows. This was fixed in Confluence 4.1.
