--- Comment #2 from Nicolas Fella <nicolas.fe...@gmx.de> --- It's, umh, complicated. The copy/paste actions aren't using the system's clipboard, instead what they do is allow you to copy/paste files _within_ a writable archive. The fact that the copy button is enabled in a read-only archive doesn't help with this confusion either. I assume that you want it to copy/paste between Ark and another application, which is a perfectly reasonable expectation. However this is surprisingly hard to implement properly. Same story with Drag and Drop (as can be seen in a recent video). For Drag and Drop we have a hack that makes it work between Ark and Dolphin. We probably could use that for Copy/Paste as well, but that wouldn't help with other applications. I'm planning to make a detailed writeup of the technicalities of this problem to start a conversation on how we can solve this -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
