Thanks for your bug. I'm rejecting it since it has nothing to do with gnome-panel and that's not a bug. If you want to open a specification on launchpad or the wiki about that you are welcome
Some notes about that though: - gnome-settings-daemon has a clipboard manager - apps have to use it, you can try with gedit by example. Open it, type some text, use Ctrl-C, close gedit, use Ctrl-V to some other application or reopen gedit and hit ctrl-V the text is copied - a clipboard applet similar to klipper would be nice but that's a request for a new software, not a bug The select,middle click copy might not use the clipboard though as explained by the bug Daniel pointed that's the way xorg clipboard management is done ** Changed in: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Status: Needs Info => Rejected -- Gnome clipboard manager ? https://launchpad.net/bugs/38431 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
