Cmd-x not working as expected on latest Mac OSX

Answered

Hi

Im considering buying Intellij IDEA but noticed cmd-x not working as expected on my mac.

It does delete the line but it doenst also copy the line to clipboard. End result is that a common sequence of actions like:  cut the line and move it to anotehr file ( which normally is doen with cmd-x from file 1 and cmd-v to file 2 doesnt work ). 

Now on mac cmd-x cmd-v is confusing as cmd-x deleted the line but cmd-v pastes another line...

Is this a bug or on purpose ? I noticed on windows Ctrl-X does cut the line and copied to clipboard ( like it should be ).

managed to find a hacky incomplete workaround with a macro but only works for 1 line not for a group of selected line.

thanks

Florian

Do you use any applications that could interact with the clipboard (like clipboard managers or else)?

Do you see same issue if call the action from Edit | Cut main menu?

Do you see the issue only in IntelliJ IDEA?

Provide idea.log (Help | Show Log in ... action) after IDE restart and reproducing if problem remains.
