Is this a bug for JMP 14?

Question

In JMP 14, when I paste multicolumn to a new table with paste with column name, the first column is always selected automatically. Then when I use select all again, only the first column is selected still. But I want all the columns are selected. I don't have this issue in JMP 11.

Yes. The consequece is if use Ctrl + A to select all rows again in the new JMP data sheet, only first column is selected still. Not all the rows like in JMP 11. So Ctrl + A becomes 1 column selection in the new data sheet.

The behavior that I see, using Windows 10, and JMP 14.2, is that if any columns are selected, a CNTL/A selects all rows, but no additional columns.  I can also confirm that when a paste is done into a new data table instance, that column 1 and only column 1 is selected.

JMP 12 and JMP 13 do not select column 1 when pasting into a new table instance.  However, if a column(s) is selected and then a CNTL/A is used, it does not select any additional columns and just selects all of the rows....just as in JMP 14.
