Cannot copy paste in dev tools
-
@easyme Vivaldi's bug tracker is not open to the public, so you cannot view the bug, but VB-89842 got fixed more than a year ago. I retested basic shortcuts in dev tools (as described in the original post here) on both the latest Stable release and Snapshot build and they work fine for me.
What specific thing does not work for you?

CMD+a, CMD+z, CMD+Shift+Z (for selecting all, undoing or redoing) don't seem to work in inputs or other elements present in DevTools. Here I demonstrate how you can select all text in some "textarea" fields but you can't in the filter "input" fields or other areas of DevTools.
CMD+x, CMD+c and CMD+v for cutting, copying and pasting seem to work for me.

Hi @xyzzy, thanks. Keyboard shortcuts don't work for me when dev tools panel is open. In particular:
- ctrl-page up / ctrl-page down do not switch tabs
- cmd-alt-i does not close panel (see Toggle Dev Tools shortcut)
- cmd-1 to cmd-9 (jump to tab) don't work
I'm sure I could find others. Text editing shortcuts like copy and paste work, but not others.
These shortcuts work fine when dev tools is closed.
They work fine when dev tools is open but doesn't have focus. Did you focus dev tools? Put the cursor in dev tools somewhere (Styles filter box, console, etc) and see if that makes a difference.It could also be a bug that only happens on certain platforms. Here's my build strings:

No visibility into whether they even looked at the right thing, possible causes / workarounds, if it's waiting on another issue, etc. I thought every modern project had a public bug tracker.

Also page reload (ctrl-r) doesn't work on dead bird pages (crashed tab). Have to click url bar and enter to (re)load page.
Hard to test, can't recreate dead bird. Is there a good way to crash a tab?

I tested it on Windows and it does seem to work fine, so it could be a MacOS specific bug.
