I couldn't find any threads on this or any information in the help file, but sorry if it's been stated before. When I copy text from a channel window you can only copy the amount of lines you can see. By this I mean there could be 300 lines in the window but obviously you aren't going to be able see all 300 lines.

Basically my suggestion is that I'd like to be able to copy all the text, or the amount of text that is highlighted when I release my mouse.

My main reason for this is people send me code to look at and since I can't copy all the code, I forget which line I'm to resume copying from, I find it rather annoying.

Well, you do have the /savebuf command, but I don't see why there would be a limit on how much can be copied at once.

I think he told about the scrollbar, when copying text, you can't scroll by holding the mouse on the left click and move mouse down or up.Would be very nice to be able scroll by selecting text from a mirc window

I did mean the scrollbar, I thought I added that. That's exactly what I mean. Right now it doesn't move I'd like to be able to copy more and have the scrollbar reposition.

The page you get if you type /help text copy and paste implies that this is a known limitation. I'm not saying it will never happen but I wouldn't hold my breath.
