#1431 Paste text not working correctly with marked block

[Burkhard Arenfeld]

Hello!

On fresh installed Manjaro Linux with Code::Blocks 20:03 I've problems with the paste function:
It's not possible anymore to paste (ctrl-v) a text block at a target position with marked text.
The marked text at the target position is deleted only and nothing inserted.
It doesn't matters if I use the keyboard shortcuts (ctrl-x/c/v) or mouse or edit menu.
(Paste at target position without marked text is OK)

To reproduce it:

• Please create a new, empty text file and enter the words "Hello" and "World" in two separate lines
• Mark the "Hello" and copy it into the buffer with "copy" (ctrl-c)
• Mark the "World" in the next line and activate "paste" (ctrl-v)

The result is, that "World" is deleted and nothing pasted.
Paste buffer after that operation is empty.
In my previous installation (Linux Mint 19.2) the "World" was replaces with "Hello".
Same problem with "cut" (ctrl-x) and "paste". Then both lines are empty :-)
Copy/paste from one file to another file inside Code::Blocks is broken too.

Strange:

If I do the same between a second texteditor (xed) and Code::Blocks copy/paste
works like expected in both directions.

Some ideas ?

Depends on the protocol and compositor used; Wayland+Weston is known to fail.

Possibly fixed by this wxWidgets' PR, so this should work in wx3.2.7.
