[Problem/Bug]: Copy/paste functions not working with touchscreen

[jamesdavidson407]

What happened?

When I select text within a page displayed in the WebView2 control, the menu for selecting "Copy" appears but I'm unable to click on it. It just stays open until I click away. The text doesn't get copied to the clipboard as I'm not able to paste it inside or outside of the app. Selecting Ctrl+C using the touchscreen keyboard also fails to work. If I use an external keyboard or a mouse, it works fine.

Importance

Moderate. My app's user experience is affected, but still usable.

Hi @jamesdavidson407,

Sorry to hear you're hitting this and thanks for trying it in prerelease!

In the dropdown that appears when you select text, I assume it's a normal context menu with multiple options besides just copy (correct me if I'm wrong). Is it only the copy button that doesn't respond? Do other menu items appear to work?

[jamesdavidson407]

It is a menu that shows the clipboard options with an ellipsis to open the full context menu. E.g. Cut,Copy,Paste,... None of the options work including the ellipsis, so I'm not able to open the full context menu to see if any of the other options would work.
