Webuilder 2011 Version 11.01 (11.0.1.117) on Windows Vista Ult. with 4Gb Memory.
I often have to copy and paste large chunks of text. The copy and paste process is excruciatingly slow. With other editors, like Homesite or Textpad this is a breeze.
Any solution?
Thanks

Re: WeBuilder 2011 Copy to clipboard very slow
There is a newer version released than you have there (11.0.1.128) and I think some of the text handling has been improved (check the changelog on the announcement forums). I had problems handling very long lines of text (the editor slugged right down with thousands of characters in a single tag, which is not that usual anyway) but I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary with the clipboard.
Do you have the extended clipboard panel open (Edit, Extended Clipboard)? If so, does closing it make any difference?
Also a note to the developers; there is a grammatical error of sorts in the help file. It reads:
To view extended clipboard contents, on the Edit menu, click Extended Clipboard. Panel Clipboard will appear.
Maybe this could read something like:
To view extended clipboard contents, on the Edit menu, click Extended Clipboard. The Clipboard Panel will appear.
or:
Blah blah blah, The Extended Clipboard Panel will appear

Thanks for your answer, but it doesn't seem to help.
I updated to the last version (11.0.1.128) but I don't experience any change.
I also don't have the extended clipboard open. (Tried that, but it doesn't make any difference.
Here some statistics:
I'm working on a html file containing 610,155 characters (98,947 words, 9,192 lines).
When selecting 2,000 lines (132,710 chars, 19,823 words) and hit CTRL-x Webuilder becomes non-responsive for 3 second.
When selecting 5,000 lines (331,768 chars, 49,549 words) and hit CTRL-x Webuilder becomes non-responsive for 17 second.
When selecting 7,500 lines (497,236 chars, 74,288 words) and hit CTRL-x Webuilder becomes non-responsive for 41 second.
When selecting all (CTRL-a) and hit CTRL-x Webuilder becomes non-responsive for 61 second.
As you can see, this is not very satisfying as I often have to move large chunks of text (5,000 to 7,500 lines).
Anything else that can be done?

Can you send a zipped version of that file to our support system?
