Description ah_mail 2022-05-04 13:44:24 UTC 
SUMMARY
Selecting text from one diff window and copying it to clipboard leaves the old content in clipboard.
But sending the application in the background and bringing it back in focus now allows copying the selection.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a new diff.
2. Select some text.
3. Copy with Ctrl+C because the menu entry is still disabled.

OBSERVED RESULT
Old content stays in clipboard.

EXPECTED RESULT
The selected text is in clipboard.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 10
