Copying Text from a List Box

When a ListBox control has focus, you can copy the contents of the list box to the clipboard, by using the CTRL+C or CTRL+INSERT shortcut key combination. The copy action starts with the first entry currently displayed in the list box and ends with the last entry in the list box.

A carriage return / line feed character (CrLf) is added to the end of each entry’s text.

In the JADE development environment, the Edit menu includes a CTRL+C menu accelerator for the Copy command. The list boxes displaying classes, properties, and methods will therefore not receive a CTRL+C copy request because such a request is sent to the editor pane. To copy the contents of the classes, properties, or methods list box, use the CTRL+INSERT key combination.
