I am unable to interact with shortcuts on the search bar on the "Replace Footage/File" Dialog Box from the Project panel. After effects 25.5.0 Build 4
Meaning I cannot paste the long file name I just copied and have to manually type. I cannot copy or select the text neither. 
It has happened on both macOS Tahoe and also macOS Sequoia. 
Please fix this

not a solution, but a workaround, you can right-click and select Paste, and that should paste it, to avoid having to type it.

I’m having the same issue on mac sequoia with Ae 2026.3 and that’s what I’m doing to avoid having to type everything manually.
