Why is copying and pasting a block now broken? - WagmoreBarkless - May-04-2022
This is trivial, but...
Henceforth, if I had a block of code:
code line 1 code line 2 code line 3 code line 4And I wanted to copy the 2nd and 3rd line to another block, I would just select them both, Ctrl+C, move caret, Ctrl+V, bang, life is good. Now, however, when I select the two lines together, I see blinking black vertical bars at the end of the lines when I select. I copy, move caret, and paste, and I get bizarre and unexpected behavior WRT inserting blank lines, copying only one line, etc.
Either I have somehow offended the gods (I'm sorry - honest!) or I have bumped a switch that I can't find.
How can I turn this alleged 'feature' off?
Thanks.

Please don't double post. It's against the rules.

Double post was accidental, sorry.
Restarting PyCharm fixed it.
