Cannot copy and paste from textedit object in main patcher to textedit object in bpatcher.

Has anyone else encountered this problem? I cannot copy and paste from textedit object in the main patcher to a textedit object in a bpatcher using the Edit Menu (top menu) or the the right-click context menu.

After copying from the main patcher, Paste is greyed out in the menu. I cannot use other Edit menu items (Copy Paste etc.) until the scheduler is stopped and restarted.

Note: Keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V) work fine. Right-clicking to expose edit menu options does not work either.

I'm on Max 8.1.6 Windows 10 - 64-bit

I've attached a small example patch. I've submitted a ticket, but if anyone knows why this is happening, please let me know, and I'll cancel it. Thanks!

Looks like a bug indeed. Same on Mac.
