Platform: Windows 10
Calibre Version: v5.0.1
# 'Copy to Clipboard' button in the toolbar does not copy selected text
## Steps for reproduction
1. Open an ePub file.
2. Activate a toolbar in the left side of the Calibre viewer. (Preferences -> Miscellaneous -> Show a toolbar with the most useful actions)
3. Select a text segment and click the 'Copy to Clipboard' button in the toolbar.
## Expected behavior (the behavior in v4.23)
The text segment is copied to clipboard in various formats (including HTML).
## Actual behavior (the behavior in v5)
Nothing happens. It doesn't copy anything, even as a plain text.
I tried turning off Windows Security protection feature and Firewall, but it doesn't help.
## Related behavior
Until v4.23, pressing `Ctrl+C` after selecting text used to copy the content to the clipboard in both the plain text and the HTML format. (See https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=333434, post #1)
In v5.0, `Ctrl+C` copies the content only in the plain-text format; all the HTML formatting is lost. |
