Description Antonio Rojas 2018-05-01 11:31:37 UTC 
With Qt 5.11 beta 4, the Copy entry in the context menu is always disabled when text is selected. It is still possible to copy via the Control-C shortcut. Worked fine with beta 3.

I can confirm.
Comment 2 David Rosca 2018-05-08 08:46:35 UTC 
That would mean QWebEnginePage::Copy action is not properly updated by QtWebEngine. Please report it upstream.

This is really strange. I have two webbrowsers build against of Qt5.11 beta 4: Falkon (3.0.99 (b6edd26c) - as you can see it's "GIT" version) and Otter-Browser (0.9.98 weekly 225 - from "GIT", too), both based on Qt5, too. 
In Falkon, copy entry in the context menu is disabled, but I can copy from context menu in Otter Browser (with qt5-webengine backend).
Comment 4 David Rosca 2018-05-08 11:48:44 UTC 
That's not strange, otter probably just checks if selectedText() is not empty to enable copy action.
But the bug here is in QtWebEngine not properly updating QWebEnginePage::Copy action - it was working up to beta3 so it's clearly regression there.

Ok. Thank David for info. And just only for information, too. Unfortunetly, on falkon builds against of Qt5.11RC this bug occurs, too.

BTW, there are even more regressions in Qt5.11 since beta4 :(

There is patch for Qt 5.11.1. Everyone can applied it for Qt 5.11.0. It works.
