Carl Anderson created GUACAMOLE-2133:
----------------------------------------
Summary: Paste to replace a text selection deletes selection
without replacing contents
Key: GUACAMOLE-2133
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-2133
Project: Guacamole
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.6.0, 1.5.3
Reporter: Carl Anderson
I've only been able to test this on our prod (1.5.3) and dev (1.6.0)
environments, but I see it in both places when using Chrome and Firefox. This
issue may exist in other versions.
Steps to reproduce:
* Outside of guacamole: copy text to clipboard
* Inside guacamole, within a visual text editor such as vscode or jupyter:
select text you wish to replace with the clipboard contents
* Press Ctrl-V to paste
Expected behavior:
* selected text is replaced with clipboard contents
Actual behavior:
* pause of 2-3 seconds
* selected text is deleted
* clipboard has been updated to match the text selection that was deleted
Everything seems to work normally when the clipboard source content originates
from within the guacamole-accessed VM. It only seems to be problematic when
pasting from an external source.
Also, if there is no text selected when pasting, the paste operates as
expected. So, the workaround is trivial. We can select the text to replace,
delete it by pressing 'del', and then paste normally.
