  I am editing a blog entry. I wanted to copy some text snippet from a code block to a paragraph block, but it did not work. CTRL-C and CTRL-V does not work, as well as right-click copy/paste.

  Is this a bug? Working in chrome, MacOS, no wordpress extension installed.

  Now it is working! What is going on? Does it only work at special times?
