Zoero7 paste bug？

lincion
While using the paste function in Zotero 7 notes, I encountered several issues:

1. When I paste from an external text into Zotero, if I have selected existing text in Zotero (but did not use Ctrl+C), the paste operation will insert the selected text instead of the content from the clipboard. It appears as if the selected text directly overrides the clipboard in Zotero.

2. I don’t know under what circumstances this happens occasionally, but sometimes the paste function fails. However, I am still able to type text, create paragraphs, and insert formulas; it’s just that pasting content doesn’t work.

Here is the error console information:

    New finding， this problem can be solved by using trouble shooting mood, however this mode can't record crash info while writing notes with some operation like deleting the line after math formula, multi click on same place and so on.

    You'll need to identify the plugin causing the issue and report it to the developer.
