Qlipper is "write only" in x2go session

Open troffasky opened this issue 8 years ago • 1 comments

Attempting to use Qlipper in an X2go session [ x2goserver 4.0.1.19 Debian packages]. It seems that Qlipper can only write the to the clipboard and selection buffer, not read. I can add sticky items and paste them no problem. Any selections or clipboard entries created from other applications do not appear in Qlipper. I have tried enabling and disabling PSE.

Other applications in the session have no problem sharing clipboard entries, regardless of application toolkit [Qt, GTK, Mozilla, basic X (xterm and the like)]. The sticky entries feature is useful by itself but this level of functionality is way below what I could be doing with Qlipper.

I don't know enough about the mechanics of the clipboard and paste buffer in X to say if this is an issue with x2go or Qlipper but as other applications have no problem with the clipboard I am starting with a bug submission here :-)

This sounds like signal QClipboard::changed is never emitted in your environment.
