iTerm2: pasting with the mouse between tabs does not work (anymore)

[graziosi.angelo@…]

I had OSX 10.11.6 and upgraded iTerm2 from version 2 to 3 a few days ago and iTerm2 worked fine as expected.

Now I did a fresh (from scratch) reinstall of OSX 10.11.6 and I am doing a fresh reinstall of MacPorts.

After installed iTerm2, I discovered that pasting with mouse wheel between tabs does not work anymore.

In other words. Open iTerm2 with 2 tabs. In the first tab:

ls -lrt

double click on a word, Library, for example. Now switch to the other tab. Click mouse wheel to paste.. it DOES NOT paste. I used this mechanism since the first time I installed MacPorts and iTerm2 (2011).

I searched in iTerm2 Preferences an option to restore previous behavior, but I didn't find it...

For completeness, after I installed iTerm2 I did these customizations (the same I had in previous version of iTerm2):

iTerm2 Preferences:

  Appearence - Window - Show border around window
             - Deselect "Show tab numbers"
	     - Deselect "Show tab close buttons"

  Profiles - Text - Blinking cursor - 13pt Monaco
           - Window - Columns: 100, Rows: 26
           - Terminal - Unlimited scrollback
	   - Colors - Load Presets - Pastel (Dark Background)
	                             (Default was : Dark Background)

  Advanced - Tip of the Day - Disable Tip of the Day? Yes
