Description diek 2012-01-20 04:13:41 UTC
Product Version = NetBeans IDE 7.1 (Build 201112071828)
Operating System = Windows 7 version 6.1 running on x86
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.7.0_01
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 21.1-b02

Using NetBeans I copied text and pasted it a current document, *.java. When I copied new text from an external editor, Textpad, NetBeans would not paste the newly copied text. It would paste the text NetBeans had copied. I tried pasting the text into another application, Notpad++. It worked as it should. Could you please look into this matter? Thank you,
diek

This seems to be duplicate of issue 205697

Can you please try running IDE with switch: -J-Dnetbeans.slow.system.clipboard.hack=false
