are you actually selecting a clip range or the entire clip anyway?
the selected range is NOT the interval between the left edit-head and the right edit-tail blue lines. no. you only set it as selected if you hit Edit/Select/Range (or Track Range for affecting clips that are on the current highlighted track only)
the selected clip range(s) always appears as translucent blue region(s); that's what gets copied and pasted--whatever lies between the edit-head/tail have no direct effect here.
