No yet but I am going to go this way if I don't succeed in building a standalone allowing copy-paste by mean of command C & V.

Yes, I think you are right as my former standalone allows copy-paste (command C & V)
I discover the problem with last versions because I would have like to make some (minor) changes in the standalone (the splash stack)
to test that, I will try to build a standalone with an older version ;-)
Best regards
