I'm using VSE 2017 64-bit on a Linux desktop, with CUA emulation.
When I highlight something with the keyboard, pressing and holding the SHIFT key on the first letter, then END on the last letter, then press CTRL-C, the data is not copied to the system clipboard. If I switch to a gnome terminal, then type SHIFT-INSERT, nothing is pasted.
If I go back to slickedit and type SHIFT-INSERT, the data is pasted into the VSE document.
If I do the highlighting in VSE with the mouse instead of the keyboard, it works - without typing CTRL-C. But I don't want to use the mouse for this. I have explored the various options settings in SlickEdit, and have not found a relevant one that fixes the problem.
I'm doing this type of copy/paste very often and really need the clipboard to work between applications, not just inside slickedit. This is probably a FAQ, but my googling has come up empty (or rather, came up with way too much stuff that was not relevant).
What is the workaround ?
