Right click in editor (firefox) deletes all text

When in code editor mode, for example when editing a records file in BIND, if all text is highlighted and the mouse is right clicked (in order to bring up a context menu) all content is deleted and replaced with a dash.

Hi,

I unfortunately can not reproduce it. Please try in incognito mode. It might be caused by some extensions.

Other than that please provide video-screencast with opened console.

this does not occur in incognito mode.

A strange one as it only happens if you ctrl-a and then right click - not if you select some text and then right click.

As you say there must be an add-on that is interfering with the dom somewhere - very annoying!

Could you try disabling your Fireflx add-ons one at a time, and then testing it? That should show which add-on is responsible for the problem.

Closing as not theme issue.

I've now replicated on Chrome 51.0.2704.84 (64-bit) in Incognito mode

It seems to happen if there is more than 24 lines or more selected.

Is there anything appearing in the console?

Ok, I could reproduce it. (not in 51+ though). This is a very strange one.

I will not be able to fix it now and will leave it for the future releases. It doesn't seem very scary one as it doesn't happen when at least some little part not selected. Besides you can copy using Ctrl+C.

I think it might be the browser's bug. Maybe not. (It works on Chrome 51 properly and <=50 not).

Ok, I managed to figure this out. It will be fixed in 18.01.

Thanks for reporting.
