Copy of the serie monitor output

Development Tools IDE 2.x
1

Hello,
I'm using the Arduino IDE v2.0.2 in the Windows 10 environment. I can no longer do copy/paste of the serial monitor output like with the previous version. Ctrl A selects the code part even after left clicking in the monitor output. Ctrl C only selects the displayed part. Thanks in advance if anyone can help me.

Hi @michelfrance. The Arduino IDE developers are tracking this bug here:

Since this is a bug already discussed in the forum (but not yet solved), it might be wise to close this post.

I don't know where the other discussion is, so I will leave a note here. For what I do this is a HUGE problem. Bob

Explain what you do :wink: Maybe we can give an alternative like using an external terminal program or going back to IDE 1.8.19.

IDE2.0 is however addictive :smiley:

Thanks much for the interest. I develop classes for the floating point Teensy Audio Library. This often involves looking at the details of big arrays of time sequence data. So, I dump hundreds of data points to the Serial Monitor, cut and paste them to Gnumeric spread sheet (or sometimes Octave) where I can easily analyze things. Of course I can use 1.8.19 and I am doing so, but the point is that 2.0.3 doesn't work for this. Again, thanks for the response.

Sounds like your using Linux. Have you considered using minicom? Even allows you to save to file that you probably can load directly in gnumeric.
