In case you experience issues with docker image provided by linuxserver.io/papermerge, please open bug report in their repository.

Description
Cut Paste not working as expected
I opened this on Linuxserver initially, but the same behavior persists using the supplied compose from here. I am probably doing something wrong, but some guidance would be appreciated. I have made no changes to the papermerge.conf.py.

Select pages 1-3
Right Click on selected pages > Cut

Open Document A again
Select Pages 4-6
Right Click on selected pages > Cut
Navigate to File Browser
Right Click Empty Space > Paste Pages
Reload Page (Per Papermerge Docs) so file shows up
Pasted Document of Pages 4-6 appears

Actual

Upload Document A (10 Pages)
Select pages 1-3
Right Click on selected pages > Cut
Navigate to File Browser

Reload Page (Per Papermerge Docs) so file shows up
File Shows Up As Expected
