      Issue Summary

      When a user double-clicks on a Confluence database cell containing a number field and attempts to copy the content using Ctrl+C, the number value is not copied to the clipboard. Instead, when pasting with Ctrl+V, previously copied data is pasted rather than the number field value. This issue is specific to number fields — text fields copy correctly with both single-click and double-click methods.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Open a Confluence database that contains a number field column
      1. Double-click on a cell in the number field column to enter edit mode
      1. Select all content in the cell (Ctrl+A or manual selection)
      1. Copy using Ctrl+C
      1. Navigate to a destination (e.g., another cell, text editor, or document)
      1. Paste using Ctrl+V

      Expected Results

      The number field value from the double-clicked cell should be copied to the clipboard and pasted correctly at the destination — consistent with the behavior when single-clicking the cell and copying.

      Actual Results

      The number field value is not copied to the clipboard. Instead, previously copied clipboard data is pasted. This indicates the Ctrl+C action in the double-click/edit mode for number fields fails to write to the clipboard.

      Workaround

      • Single-click the database cell and copy using Ctrl+C — this copies number field values correctly.
      • Scope: Only number fields are affected. Text fields copy correctly with both single-click and double-click methods.
