I saw a change in the Duplicate Line function.
If I select something in a line and I choose Duplicate line (for me it is the shortcut ctrl+D) it duplicates the line without the highlighted part.
This is a change from previous versions: before it simply duplicated the line as it was.
And it is quite annoying for me: I often use to search for something, duplicate the line (as it is) and change few things and go ahead on my search.
Now before duplicating the line I have to be careful that nothing is highlighted before duplicating because otherwise the line is only partially copied (it is not duplicated, it is copied with changes).
Is there a way to go back to the previous behavior? Is there an option "Duplicate line duplicates the line regardless of what is highlighted"?
Thank you

I can not confirm this on 5.0.0 235 32-bit Windows 10.

I have Windows 10, PsPad 5.0.0 (251).
As I said it is change in one the latest version, probably the last one.
This behavior was for sure not present in built 235.

I can confirm this on 251 64b.
If you select all characters in the line (or select whole line) then a new empty line is added.

Bug fix will be availble in the next build

The old behavior is back, now, on build 261.
This works way better for me. If I want to duplicate a line I want to do it regardless of what I have selected.
Thank you very much.
