Is there a way to copy code especially in Lua web interface? I see a copy command but no paste.

Thanks,

Do the standard Ctrl-c, Ctrl-v (or command c,v on the Mac) not work for you?

I’m on Windows. If I press ctrl-F while being **in** the editor, you’ll get an editor specific little search window, at the left of it there is a knob or something similar that will open a second field for entering a ‘replace by’ string and to the right you should have icons like ‘search next’, ‘replace’ and ‘replace all’.

I can try that. I did figure out that the paste is visible on safari but not chrome.
