Can't cut or copy selected area - T-buch - 11-14-2018

I have update to 2.10
I am using Free select tool
Before (the last 6 - 8 year) i could use the Free select tool to make a selection and either copy, cut it etc - Now i am just copying or cutting the whole layer - What do I oversee?

the Free Select Tool now requires to hit Enter before the selection becomes active

Thanks a lot and by the way I really think i tried that too yesterday - but I can see it works to day - a little little bit mysterious Wink

I'm a little curious - Do you know why it works like this now?

Before fixing the selection, adjustments are possible.

Hover the pointer near the selection boundary and any adjacent nodes show.
Select a node and a click-drag adjusts the position.

There are other ways of fixing a free selection, double click inside it or select another tool.
