Issues when selecting a text

Hi,

This issue was not there in v2.5.32. It started with the latest versions (using right now v2.6).
It is happeining quite often, and it is really annoying, as it happens quite often. The application hangs when I am trying to select some text.
I attached a small video.

Hi Sami,

Thanks for reporting this issue.

I am not able to recreate this issue locally, but the error message shown here is a Windows error message that occurs when modifying the clipboard.  Most likely, another application on your computer is also trying to access the clipboard and this is causing a conflict between the two applications.  Only one application can access the clipboard at a time.

Do you have "automatically copy selected text" enabled?  If so, disabling this option might help.

Hope that helps,

Toby

Hi,

In the begining, I was thinking the same. But, this issue occurs only with LogViewerPlus, and never with any other text editor (see new video).
It happens when I am extending any selection.
Anyway, if it is not reproducible on your side, then you can ignore it.

Other applications will not automatically copy the selected text if you have not configured them to do so.  The issue occurs when copying data to the clipboard.

Hope that helps,
