Edit Metadata Copy Paste Weird Behaviour
I'm Using Calibre 3.6 and have come across a change in the copy/paste behavior.
What's Happening: I'm editing the title, publisher, and series of books and use copy/paste frequently to correct or add missing information. What I frequently do is copy some information from the title field, and paste it either in the publisher or series. This issue is that I used to be able to highlight information, copy it, then highlight whats in the series field, and paste to replace it. I can't do this any more. I have to have my cursor on a blank space before the paste will work.
The behavior of not being allowed to paste over highlighted information seems to be recent to me.
Is anyone else having this issue? It seems to be happening in all the edit metadata fields.
