Ctrl + → simply moves the cursor. To create a selection, you need to hold down Shift. Ctrl + X didn't work because you can't cut to the clipboard when nothing is selected.


―――――――
Ctrl+Shift with an arrow key | Select a block of text
Shift with any arrow key | Select more than one item in a window or on the desktop, or select text within a document

Panorama has been removed from Firefox 45, currently in Beta and scheduled for release on March 7th. As such, I'm closing all existing Panorama bugs.

If you are still using Panorama, you will see a deprecation message in Firefox 44, and when 45 is released your tab group data will be migrated to bookmarks, with a folder for each group. There are also a few addons offering similar functionality.

See https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/tab-groups-removal for more info.

We're removing Panorama because it has extremely low usage (about 0.01% of users), and has a large number of bugs and usability issues. The cost of fixing all those issues is far too high to justify, and so we'll instead be focusing our time and energy on improving other parts of Firefox.
