[Bug] Copy-Paste works fine within CherryTree, but it doesn't work if its any other application.
CherryTree 0.99.53
Fedora Workstation 37
Wayland, GNOME ver 43.2
Neither the shortkey (i.e. Ctrl + C) nor right-clicking any word to copy-and-paste works.
Screencast from 2023-01-18 14-08-42.webm
In the video above, I have tried to copy a text named "data" a couple of times and tried to paste it into a note editor but it doesn't work/respond. But if you try to copy-paste words inside CherryTree, it does work correctly.
Edit: doesn't ---> does (typo)
I have a virtual machine with Fedora 37 Gnome Wayland so I tried this but couldn't reproduce using the default text editor as recipient. Is this happening systematically for you or only some times?
Is this happening systematically for you or only sometimes?
No, a guy commented a day before yesterday. I got the email about his comments. But he/she deleted the comment for some reason, I guess. He/she said that he/she had to lunch the CherryTree with root permission (which is not a good approach).
This bug is so weird. I use ChatGPT (in Firefox) these days for documenting a lot of topics. And not being able to copy-paste the topics between two apps is really annoying/infuriating.
If I copy something from CherryTree to Firefox, nothing is pasted. If I copy something from Firefox to CherryTree, it works fine. Things should work vice-versa, but sadly its not the case. I can't copy anything outside is CherryTree.
Is there a flag/command that I can use in order to trace the bug, then do let me know. But this bug exists for real.
And, no, this happens quite a lot of time. In previous releases, there was a rare experience. But nowadays, it's so frequent, I can say, "This happens ALL the time".
If instead of Copy (Ctrl+C) you use Copy as Plain Text (Shift+Ctrl+C) does it make any difference?
Would you be able to build cherrytree from the latest source code as described in https://github.com/giuspen/cherrytree#building-cherrytree-on-fedora and run from the terminal and report if you see differences? And also if you see any strange print on the terminal?
I did see the post later deleted. Can you also just for once and for sake of testing run as root cherrytree and see if that works?
If instead of Copy (Ctrl+C) you use Copy as Plain Text (Shift+Ctrl+C) does it make any difference?
I tried both the Copy-As-Plain-Text option and shortkey (Shift+Ctrl+C), but I don't think it made any difference.
CherryTree launched from the terminal without root.

Can you also just for once and for sake of testing run as root cherrytree and see if that works?
@giuspen yes, copy-paste works if I launch CherryTree as root.
Looks like an issue with flatpak and wayland. I shall attach a native package for you to try instead.
Can you try https://www.giuspen.net/software/cherrytree-0.99.53.99~Fedora37_amd64.rpm It is marked as 0.99.53 but it is in fact the latest build, very very close to 0.99.54 If can be useful I'll release a package for Fedora37 as well in the 0.99.54 release that will happen on Sunday
The domain is down or something? @giuspen I can't seem to visit the website, tried even google search to manually go to your official website.
Edit:
Can you just upload the package here?
I even tried using Chromium to see if the link opens or the main website opens.
Country: Nepal
@PranavBhattarai hmm strange.. I can access the website without problems (Im from Germany). Perhaps the problem is connected with the geo-location somehow.. could you re-route your geolocation? BTW, nice to see that website is being maintained, just saw now new demo pics etc.
@Mjimitater can you please upload the rpm package here?
Re-routing my geolocation means paid VPN service. And my country doesn't normally allow/support Paypal AFAIK.
I tried Tor Browser to see if the website works since it uses "Tor Network", but the result is the same. The website doesn't load.
@PranavBhattarai I tried to upload the package here but without success. It allows me to upload such binaries only when I do the release ( https://github.com/giuspen/cherrytree/releases ). I plan to release tomorrow and I will create also a Fedora37 package is that ok? otherwise just send me an email privately and I will answer attaching the package. My email is in help--about dialog
I downloaded the rpm package from my office network. But failed to install due to dependencies issues as you can see:

If I am not wrong, is this what people refer to as "dependencies hell"?! Conflicting packages... Is it safe to press yes?
I'm surprised about the xorg libraries. It is safe though to install packages from the standard library.
@giuspen Sorry I didn't install the above package but we have good news.
The bug seems to be resolved/healed in the new version of CherryTree 0.99.54. I can now copy-paste between CT and other apps (like Firefox). So I guess we can close this issue?
Thank you @PranavBhattarai is it the 0.99.54 flatpak version working or the fedora native package that I built?
Can this be reopened or I better to create a new one?
Ubuntu 22.04
Linux 6.5.0-1025-oem
CherryTree 1.1.4 (snap)
Wayland Gnome and KDE
Cannot copy text from CherryTree to any other APP. Can copy from others apps to CherryTree.
Hi, I have the same problem but I can copy it into a text editor, browser and libreoffice. I can copy text to other programs if I run cherrytree in sudo.
