Bug Description
Latest version of Caliber 2.32.1 for (also some previois ones has the same problem) - copy paste does not work.
It is Windows 7 x64. When I select a text in a book with a mouse and then right-click it and click "Copy" it does nothing!
Nothing appears in Windows clipboard. So, it is not possible to copy any text from a book.
Book format does not matter, I tried EPUB and Fb2 - clipboard does not work at all! :-(
Could you please fix it? Because it looks very bad - I cannot copy even single word from a book which is very silly experience for computer. I need to copy a cite and insert into my article. I do not want to re-type lot of text manually!
Please fix it.
Hardware/OS: Intel Core-i5/Windows 7 Ultimate x64, clipboard is standard (I do not use any keyboard of clipboard enhansers)
Caliber version: 2.32.1
Steps:
1) open book (in my case George Orwel "1984".
2) scroll to some page (let say #10)
3) select 2-3 lines of text
4) right-click selected text, click "Copy"
5) switch to MS Word (or Notepad), click Paste - nothing happened
I cannot replicate this copying from the viewer works fine on my windows
7 x64 machine. You likely have something on your computer interfering
with the clipboard, either an overzealous antivirus program or a
clipboard manager of some kind.
