How the Debugger Uses the Clipboard

How the Debugger Uses the Clipboard
Whenever something is selected with the standard windows double-click, it is
placed on the clipboard. The clipboard can be pasted into selected fields by
clicking the right mouse button.
Double-clicks are also used in the Register and Memory windows to make
values active for editing. These double-clicks also copy the current value to
the clipboard, destroying anything you might have wanted to paste into the
window (for example, a symbol into the memory address field). In situations
like this, you can press the CTRL key while double-clicking to prevent the
selected value from being copied to the clipboard. This allows you to, for
example, double-click on a symbol, CTRL+double-click to activate a register
value for editing, and click the right mouse button to paste the symbol value
into the register.
Many of the Real-Time C Debugger commands and their dialog boxes open
with the clipboard contents automatically pasted in the dialog box. This
makes entering commands easy. For example, when tracing accesses to a
program variable, you can double-click on the variable name in one of the
debugger windows, choose the Trace→Variable Access... (ALT, T, V)
command, and click the OK button without having to enter or paste the
variable name in the dialog box (since it is has automatically been pasted in
the dialog box).
