[jira] [Updated] (NETBEANS-705) Disable cut/copy line when no
selection is made works no more
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-705?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Monkey updated NETBEANS-705:
----------------------------
Description:
NB supports cut/copy line when no selection is made which is rather controversial as it may lead to inadvertent edits. IntelliJ has a way of disabling that feature called "most-viewed intellij issue as no sane dev on earth wants to copy emptiness and yet the solution is held out of reach" at [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32895522/disable-copying-entire-line-when-nothing-is-selected-in-intellij] (it was not me who said this and probably it was not said too seriously but it shows well how much the feature is controversial).
There is a guy at [https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=192613] which gives an answer in the style which I have heard several times from the "late NB" devs:
I am sorry you hate it but there are users who love it. There is no plan to change it.
Yet NB could disable the behavior by adding a parameter -J-Dorg.netbeans.editor.disable.no.selection.copy=true (works no more).
