Description Petr Pisl 2012-09-05 13:50:14 UTC
It's not possible to copy from NB a text and paste it in other application. Usually it paste some old text that was copied some times before.

Easy test case.

- Open NetBeans
- select a text and press CTRL + C
- switch to another application, text editor, mail, other instance of NetBeans
- press CTRL + V 
- as a result a different text is pasted then was selected.
