Copy & Paste from NetBeans to external editors doesn't work.

[chengthao]

Apache NetBeans version

Apache NetBeans 16

What happened

Copying code from NetBeans IDE and pasting it to a text editor outside of NetBeans often do not work. Once in a while, copy and paste works but not for most of the time.

How to reproduce

Under Windows 11, using NetBeans 15,

• Create a Java project.
• Create a Java class.
• Write code some.
• Copy the code and paste it to Notepad.
• Nothing will be pasted into Notepad or any text editor.

Did this work correctly in an earlier version?

Apache NetBeans 12.6 or earlier

Operating System

Windows 11

JDK

JDK 19

Apache NetBeans packaging
