Perhaps this is better put as a formal bug report.
I noted just a little while ago that when in split view with the same file in each view that trying to paste into the bottom view would paste the text from where I copied it in the top view even though the cursor was clearly active in the bottom view. I had enabled the split view plugin without restarting Geany, if that makes a difference.
IIRC this is a known limitation of the split view, but make a bug report anyway so it doesn't get lost.
I'll check into doing so.
In the meantime a workaround (at least on Linux) is to paste from one window to the other using the middle mouse button to paste the highlighted text.
For some reason, I have had difficulty using the middle-button paste with Geany where nothing will paste. I am Using Debian Sid with XFCE and its Clipman clipboard manager. I also use Geany in a GNOME3 environment with gnome-shell on a laptop. I will have to see if the problem exists there.
