Ramjet:

Why can’t I do a Block Copy and Paste of a bunch of code in Easy C?
If I can, How?
I tried Click n Drag, nothing gets selected.
I tried Holding shift while clicking icons, only the last icon clicked gets selected. Same with holding control while selecting, Only the last icon gets selected.
I also tried selecting in the code window, the block highlites, but Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V do nothing, and right clicking does nothing.

This would make duplicating and modifying code for similar blocks much less time consuming.
Such as, I have a block of code in an if loop, it stops and backs up then turns right. It also has several comment icons to document the code for others when (if) I upload it.
Copy N Paste then flip motor direction in only 2 icons and edit a comment or two would give me a block that stops, backs up then turns left.

I expect this might be something that would be inhibited in Introductory mode but I run Pro mode all the time.

Thanks, Ramjet

If you are using EasyC 1.x, this is the reason and the solution, Copy and paste in EasyC 1.1?.
