The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

[8.0ß13-x64] Ctrl+C in MessageBox copies wrong title

Post by *Flint »

Reproducing of this problem depends on many factors, I did not find a method of reliable reproducing the problem, so I recorded a video:
Video/EXE (player/codec included)
Video/AVI (needs MSU Screen Capture Lossless Codec)

Unfortunately I don't have any influence on what Windows copies when you press Ctrl+C in a Messagebox. This is entirely handled by Windows. I guess that Windows gets confused by programs which have multiple top level windows (e.g. TC main form, Lister form etc) and the MessageBox is the child of one of them.

Hm… OK, I see.

PS: Count this as the 6th argument for replacing MessageBoxes with usual dialogs. ;)

Especially point 3 in that old thread makes me crazy (inability to close Yes/No dialog with Escape)...
