I am working with 2.6.0 which is latest release on their website.  I get identical results with your posted .x3d and the ".old" version, screenshot attached with some console text selected.

Instant Reality console mistakenly reports scene errors that values are missing from some fields even when they are not required (e.g. null SFNode intended, or IS/connect override provided).

On windows: mouse selection, select all (Ctrl A), and copy (Ctrl C) hot keys work on the console text.  No console menu items seen to support text copy.

thanks, glad it makes sense.

Sorry but have not yet added Cobweb support to X3D-Edit so test reports from someone else will be helpful.
