Title: Too many passages to copy and paste in the right click menu.
Post by: Mega69 on September 26, 2009, 11:45:19 pm

Hello,
I've been using codeblocks for a week and I really like it.

However, in many other editors ( notepad, notepad++ etc. ), you can copy and paste a text simply by right clicking and selecting "copy" or "paste".

Instead in Codeblocks you have to right click, then you have to select "edit", and then you can "copy"/"paste"/"cut".

I don't like the fact that you have to go in "edit" in order to copy or paste, because this is a bit frustrating.

I'd like the commands copy, paste and cut to be directly in the "right click" menu, and not in its "sub-menu" edit.

Is there any solution?

Thanks.

Hi Mega69,

since a few weeks, CB offers even more nice features for copy and paste. For example you can mark a text in the editor (holding left mouse key). Then release the mouse button and scroll with the mouse wheel to a location within the editor. If you now press your middle button/mouse wheel the previous selected will be inserted at the corresponding location. This is more efficient then using context menus, isn't it? :D
