An issue is still the non standard cut behavior compared to all other editors.
Steps to Reproduce:
Disable the option of cutting/copying the current line. ( editor: empty selection clipboard -> uncheck Controls whether copying without a selection copies the current line.)
In this mode:
Expected, "normal" behaviour ->
Selecting a piece of text "abc", copying it to clipboard , pasting it, pastes copied text "abc".
Selecting nothing. pressing the cut or copy shortcut while there is no selection, pasting , pastes the content of the clipboard which is still "abc".
Behavior seen in all thea based editors ->
Selecting a piece of text "abc", copying it to clipboard , pasting it, pastes copied text "abc".
Selecting nothing. pressing the cut or copy shortcut while there is no selection, pasting , pastes the content of the clipboard which is still nothing.
When cutting or copying nothing a clipboard stays in it's current state it doesn't get emptied. In thea based editors it gets emptied.
Additional Information
Operating System:
First encountered in Arduino 2 editor, it's been there since the beginning as far as I know. It's still there today . 2.3.x
Tried it in the theia demo app.
Started this as a discussion, got asked by @msujew to make it a bug report. #13650
