Copy / paste keyboard shortcuts not working properly on macOS Mojave

[PSchaug]

Slic3rPE 1.42.0 Alpha 5+
macOS Mojave 10.14.2

In some dialogue boxes macOS copy/paste shortcuts do not work.
To reproduce:
Press Export G-code... Trying to use cmd-A (select all, cmd-C (copy) or cmd-V (paste) does not give expected results, nothing happens. Need to use right-click and menu commands for this to work.

Same result in other dialogue boxes (basically any dialogue on the File-menu).

Do you still have the issue with the beta1? I believe we updated to a newer wxWidgets UI library, so it may have improved.

Would you please list out all the UI elements, where you have this issue? Thanks.

Hi, issue still exists in beta1.
It is easy to replicate:
In the main window, click on Send G-code. Press Cmd-X to cut text, text disappears. Press Cmd-V to paste, text is back.
Then, in the main window, click on Export G-code. Press Cmd-X, nothing happens. Cmd-V, nothing happens. This is inconsistent behaviour, I have no idea why.
I have found this in the following UI elements:

• Export G-code-button on Plater screen
• All UI elements in the File menu where there is a dialogue box

Any other info you need? I'm now running macOS Mojave 10.14.3, no difference from earlier.

Thanks for the detailed report. It looks like a bug in the multi-platform UI library we are using (the wxWidgets).

I have the same issue - when I try to copy/paste a value of some setting (for example in the Filament Settings window) using keyboard shortcuts Cmd+C/Cmd+V, the currently loaded 3D model in the Plater tab is duplicated instead of the setting text value.

This is actually a different issue than the original one. The one by @DominikPalo has been introduced with the copy / paste functionality in the 3D scene. The issue should be now fixed in the PrusaSlicer 2.0.0-rc.

This bug is still there. Tested on Mojave and Catalina, and on 2.2.0 and 2.3.0 Alpha 4.

Although right clicking and copy/pasting does work. Just the shortcuts do not work.

@Technofrikus I cannot reproduce this issue. I can copy/paste in tabs by the shortcuts.. Can you copy/paste anywhere in slicer? Which keyboard, system and slicer language are you using?

[Technofrikus]

In the Print Settings for example I can copy/paste with shortcuts. But as PSchaug mentioned, in the Export G-Code dialog (file name) I cant. Cmd + A (select all) doesnt work as well.

[PSchaug]

The problem has been the same as long as I have used Slic3rPE / PrusaSlicer, through several OS upgrades. In any dialog box from the File-menu the keyboard shortcuts do not work (File/Save Project as, any itek on the File/Export-menu). As Technofrikus says, right-click brings up the correct menu to select copy/paste.
Currently using Norwegian keyboard layout, MacOS Mojave 10.14.6, English language.

Ok, thank you. I can reproduce this issue now.
