When I jump to a segment usineg the Comment pane, "Copy" (as well as "Cut") is greyed out in the shortcut list (right click) on both sides (source and target). Despite this, Ctr+C works fine.
Maybe a bug?

Today a new update was released again. I've installed it but it hasn't solved this problem.
Dumb question, but do you have text selected when trying to apply this command? When no text is selected, these options are indeed greyed out.
Oh, thanks, you're right. I'm used to arrows that work in Office programs but TAB also works.
Hello, the CTRL+F shortcut is under the editor functionality. This means that in order for the shortcut to work, the Editor has to be active (focused). If you don't see the cursor inside of the Editor, the shortcut won't work. When the shortcut works it needs some details from the editor (like text selection, cursor position, etc) that are only available if the editor is active.
If we move it outside of the editor it can be triggered all over the place, which will be confusing, not to say buggy.
I am aware that for quality of life reasons you would love this (to be honest I do understand your need), but I am afraid it will complicate things for other users that might accidently trigger it.
We will think about this, maybe we can improve this somehow, but the chances are slim.
Sorry, I missed your reply.
For me, when the Comments window is active and I jump to a comment, then I click inside either a source or a target segment in the Editor window (i.e. the Editor is active), CTRL+F doesn't work at all.
It is a bug.
But Ctrl+F doesn't work if Editor is active(!) and the Comment pane is selected.
CTL+F doesn’t work everywhere. I wished it worked on my Desktop, but it doesn’t because Microsoft developers didn’t find it useful/easy/… to be implemented. A bug is something different: a deviation of the designed software.
Maybe you miss something.
Ctrl+F should work in an active Editor window so that we can find things (as Bogdan wrote). But it doesn't work...
When the Add Comment or Edit Comment windows are active, the Editor is not active, so the shortcut CTRL+F doesn’t work because it’s triggered only when the Editor is active.
To be more precise: when the Comments window is open but the Editor window is active, Ctrl+F doesn't work in the Editor window.
Yes, Editor is active as I activate it by clicking in it (so the cursor can be seen in either a source or a target segment).
And I didn't refer to Add Comment or Edit Comment windows but Editor Window where your comments are listed.
By the way, Ctrl+F works in the active Editor window when e.g. the windows Translation Results, Concordance, TQA, Fragment Matches are open, except in case Comments.
