Problem/bug with multi-line multi-select copy & paste

Problem/bug with multi-line multi-select copy & paste

Postby Cort3z on Mon Feb 25, 2013 12:09 am

Hi,

I found, what I consider to be, a bug in sublime text 2. This is a bit hard to put in words, so look at the following images:

Selecting some text with multiple carets:

Selecting somewhere to insert the text:
Image

Pasting. We can see the "correct behavior":
Image

Selecting and copying multiple lines per caret (this case, 4 lines per caret):
Image

Moving carets to position for paste:
Image

Pasting:
Image


In the last image you can see that all carets get all of the clipboard, basically resulting in "wrong behavior" in my mind. I would have liked it to paste only the text that is related to the one caret like we see in the first example with correct behavior. Hopefully this is a simple fix.

Cheers


PS.: I can see that the images are fairly large and are getting cropped. Open them in a new tab to see the entire thing (text overview is gone).

This problem has existed since the very beginning, and frustrates me on a pretty regular basis. Any chance this will get fixed?
