Description
I tried to copy the last 15 characters at the end of each line (file name).
So I use the "Text Direction RTL " and select column I needed.
It shows like this and then I make a copy
After I paste it, this is what I really "COPY".

Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported case in Notepad++: enable "Text Direction RTL", select the last 15 characters of each line in column mode, copy, and paste the result. Compare the selection and pasted text with the screenshots; done means the copied column contains the characters visibly selected from each line.
