Bug ID: 421563
Summary: Plasma applets (plasmashell/plasmawindowed) do not see
clipboard on wayland
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.18.5
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: generic-wayland
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: alexander-kde@ninetailed.ninja
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
While the clipboard in general works without problems for me on Wayland
(including syncing between X11 and Wayland apps), it is totally ignored for me
when using any applet on Plasma. Copying data within a Plasma application works
as expected and can be pasted both within the given Plasma window/shell and in
other applications. Pasting data copied from any other application, including
from a different Plasma application, is not possible however. This is most
annoying, but not limited to, the Klipper/clipboard applet.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Run `plasmawindowed org.kde.plasma.clipboard` to open a standalone Plasma
window (or just use the plasmashell)
2. Open any application containing copyable text (such as Konsole or KWrite)
3. Select some text to copy
4. Press Ctrl+(Shift)+C
5. Paste the clipboard contents using Ctrl+V or right-clickâPaste into the
Klipper search field
OBSERVED RESULT
The most recent item known to Klipper is pasted
EXPECTED RESULT
The text copied from the other application is pasted
