--- Comment #5 from Maurizio Paolini <paol...@dmf.unicatt.it> --- After a brief look at the sources, it seems that this behaviour is entirely under QT responsibility: in konqueror-17.04.1/webenginepart/src/webenginepart_ext.cpp I find: [...] view()->triggerPageAction(QWebEnginePage::CopyLinkToClipboard); [...] where QWebEnginePage::CopyLinkToClipboard is an "action" that is executed in qtwebengine-opensource-src-5.9.1/src/webengine/api/qquickwebengineview.cpp, with a call to QClipboard::setMimeData: [...] qApp->clipboard()->setMimeData(data); [...] Here there is a second (optional) argument of the following type: enum Mode { Clipboard, Selection, FindBuffer } the default being "Clipboard". Now, I think that most existing applications that copy in Clipboard, also pragmatically copy the same content in "Selection", for the benefit of "old" X11 users... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
