It's no longer possible to select a match in the drop down menu and paste it by clicking on enter.
When I click on enter a blank line appears. I'm working with the full version of Wordfast Classic 8.22. Does anybody know what can be the problem? I already tried to (dis)enable the function 'past top match' in AS.

Have you tried rebooring? Jul 15, 2020

That issue has plagued several beta releases in recent weeks, but should not happen in the public version.

In my experience, some of Wf issues linked to pasting glossary or TM suggestions may, or may not, disappear after Ending the Wf session (Alt+End) (for safety, I press that key combination several times) and re-starting it. It is worth a try.

Sorry about the typo! Jul 15, 2020

Rebooting solve most PC issues. I have recommended rebooting for well over 30 years.
