The

behaviour reported on 9 December is back. :-(

As before, selecting the preview and copying it with ctrl+C does put an un-tagged copy into the buffer correctly. But ctrl+shft+C isn't working properly, either from the mouse right-click, the dropdown edit menu or by key presses.

Problem continues.
On using the menu to copy/preview/text, I get this popup error message:

Thanks for your report. I think the underlying error is the same or similiar to the one I encounterd in #4622
The citation style worker is a leftover from the old GUI technology.

Should be fixed now in the latest master.
Note that the Copy Preview copies both the HTML content and the plaintext content to the clipboard.
If you paste it into a word processor or tool that excepts html content (email for example) then it is correctly formatted with bold italics etc.
If you paste it into a plain text editor which does not support HTML formatting it is pasted as plain text.
