@christlee1989 I'm not sure I understand correctly, are you stating that keyboard shortcuts from the application are not working in chrome's devtools? "Copy/Paste Keyboard Shortcuts are not working within DevTools" seems to suggest this is what the issue is talking about.

yes, as shown in the figure

@christlee1989 it is still not clear what the exact issue is, commands from theia should not work in devTools, and the standard copy & paste work well in devTools.

Where exactly do you have the issues with copy/paster, @christlee1989? Can you share a screencast that depicts the defect?

[christlee1989]

commands from theia should not work in devTools, and the standard copy & paste work well in devTools.

When I execute the CMD+C shortcut in devtool, the copy command of theia is triggered，and can’t paste copied content

[kittaakos]

the copy command of theia is triggered

Yes, I can confirm this. It isn't an enjoyable dev experience, especially when you have another (non-theia) Electron browser window opened; keybindings just does not work. For example, for logging in, you open a new browser window.

For the record, this is a dev thing only. It does not cause any core-Theia malfunction. Feel free providing a PR with the fix, @christlee1989 ;)

I have converted this issue into a bug: the SelectAll + Copy + Paste functionality does not work with the native dialogs either.
