Double clicking text with a gLabel on a gui puts the text on the clipboard?
I am using Windows 7, Autohotkey_L 1.1.05.01 Ansi version.
Seems to be happening with Windows 7, Vista, Autohotkey_L and Basic.
Here is my original post.

Is it a bug or undocumented feature?

I can confirm that. By the way, why is the OnClipboardChange label triggered on script start?

On Vista+, WM_NCLBUTTONDBLCLK and WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK on static text controls will copy the static text to the clipboard.

On Windows XP and earlier (or AutoHotkey Basic on all Windows versions), OnClipboardChange is called once when the script starts because that is how the clipboard viewer chain (used to detect clipboard changes) works. On Windows Vista and 7 with AutoHotkey_L, the behaviour is replicated for consistency and backward-compatibility.why is the OnClipboardChange label triggered on script start?

Might be a good cleanup candidate for V2. On XP the first call could probably be ignored.

Can this be added to the Autohotkey documentation?
Any suggestions on how to prevent this?
thanks
