Harry, I'm pretty sure you can ctrl X, C, and V in those boxes now. Mad Russian (Steve) does his descriptions in word and pastes them in now. The boxes may not show right click functions for those features. We might be able to fix that in 2.1.

Can you state which text fields you are talking about Because you can cut and paste to quite a few of them now.

I find that the scenario and campaign text fields struggle with 'ctrl' C/V, I normally use 'right click' copy/paste which works works better

I'll review them all tonight and check functionality. One question. We're these issues encountered on making a new scenario or modding an existing scenario? That may be making a difference.

No, standard windows shortcuts do not work inside the FPC editor. However, right click the text and select copy or paste from the menu and that does work.

I was apparently not getting enough sleep [>:] when I said control keys in the editor. Mad Russian is right. They do not work, but the right click copy/paste does. [8D]
