How to Copy and Paste in R Studio

[SantaCruzRed]

Since the last time I used R studio, all copy and paste functions seem to have disappeared

1. ctrl C and ctrl V do nothing
2. The copy and paste commands in the edit menu do nothing
3. rt click Copy acts like it might be working, but rt click Paste doesn't even light up
   Is it just me, or is this a big step toward non-functionality?
   thanks

On windows desktop, I am not sure what could go wrong... Maybe someone will have encountered the same issue. We will see

I reloaded R Studio, now it works.
One of those blankity blank intermittent problems
Altho from the number of entries on this site over the last 5 years
referring to problems with crtl C, problem may be deeper seated
or it's good old Windows jerking us around
Thanks very much for your help

FAQ: How do I mark a solution?

If your question has been answered, don't forget to mark the solution! How do I mark a solution? Find the reply you want to mark as the solution and look for the row of small gray icons at the bottom of that reply. Click the one that looks like a box with a checkmark in it: [image] Hovering over the mark solution button shows the label, "Select if this reply solves the problem". If you don't see the mark solution button, try clicking the three dots button ( ••• ) to expand the full set of options. When a solution is chosen, the icon turns green and the hover label changes to: "Unselect if this reply no longer solves the problem". Success! [solution_reply_author] …
