That would be a weirdly non-standard behavior. It's standard that copy/paste operations act on selections operated by the cursor.
Therefore if you for example select, with the mouse, "izza", and type Ctrl+C, you would expect "izza" to be copied into the copy buffer, but it isn't. Even assuming that this crazy behavior would be appropriate, it still is inconsistent with the mouse copy operation (and this can't be argued, as it's a standard that both actions yield the same results): - select a string (say, "izza") in the location bar, either with the mouse or the cursor - type Ctrl+C -> you get "file:///tmp/pizzas/margherita" - right-click with the mouse and `copy` -> you get "izza" -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1647359 Title: Can't copy address text in Thunar, using Ctrl+C To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunar/+bug/1647359/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
