WebKit: Cut/Copy don't go on "enabled" state

I found that 'cut' and 'copy' icons do not go to enabled state after you select text in editor (chrome v. 14.0.835.202 m windows). After exploring this I found that there is a problem with queryCommandEnabled function in clipboard plugin, so I propose a solution to you.

function stateFromNamedCommand( command, editor )
{
// IE Bug: queryCommandEnabled('paste') fires also
'beforepaste(copy/cut)',
// guard to distinguish from the ordinary sources( either
// keyboard paste or execCommand ) (#4874).
CKEDITOR.env.ie && ( depressBeforeEvent = 1 );

var retval = CKEDITOR.TRISTATE_OFF;
try {retval = editor.document.$.queryCommandEnabled( command ) ||
CKEDITOR.env.webkit && editor.getSelection().getRanges()[0].startOffset !=
editor.getSelection().getRanges()[0].endOffset ? CKEDITOR.TRISTATE_OFF :
CKEDITOR.TRISTATE_DISABLED;}catch( er ){}

depressBeforeEvent = 0;
return retval;
}

Reproducible from CKEditor 3.5.1 rev [6311]

That bug is visible from rev [6311] because in this revision states of buttons had been bound to what stateFromNamedComand is returning. This function was buggy even before that.

Are there any plans to integrate the proposed patch?

I would also like to see a solution for this issue.

[Reinmar]

This issue is already fixed in dev version of next major release (inaccessible for you).

I ported correct patch to version 3.6.3 - you can apply it if you want, or wait for new major or bugfixing release.

@Reinmar, that's awesome. Thank you for this!

[Reinmar]

Fixed with [7504].

#9143 - there is still a problem when you select content with cursor placed underneath this content.
