After all, the emacs manual says:
This is not normal, and I can reproduce the issue. However, it does not look like Org is doing anything wrong. We call kill-new with the correct value containing only visible part of the buffer. I suggest you to file a bug report to Emacs itself using M-x report-emacs-bug In the report, you can cite this email. Below, I am also detailing steps to reproduce to help Emacs devs debug the problem: 1. Create bug.el with the following contents: ---- (custom-set-variables '(select-enable-clipboard nil) '(select-enable-primary t)) (defun my/copy-const (beg end) (interactive "r") (setq deactivate-mark t) (kill-new "Constant string")) ---- 2. Create bug.org with the following contents: ---- * headline Hidden text inside * another headline ---- 3. emacs -Q -l /path/to/bug.el /path/to/bug.org 4. S-<TAB> 5. M-x my/copy-const 6. C-y Expected: "Constant string" is inserted Observed: Selected region is inserted. -- Ihor Radchenko, Org mode contributor, Learn more about Org mode at https://orgmode.org/.
