Bug ID: 366669
Summary: More invocable actions in Klipper
Product: klipper
Version: 5.7.3
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: plasma-widget
Assignee: mgraess...@kde.org
Reporter: inf...@openaliasbox.org
The content saved in Klipper should be more easily pasted in different
applications. For example, copied text should be "pastable" to any program able
to edit text; copied images should be copiable to any image editor, and such.
This could be done like the sharing option in mobiles: Plasma "knows" the file
associations, so it would be easy to Klipper to offer the users a list of
compatible apps to send content. In fact, it already does with URLs: it offers
a list of apps to "send" a copied URL when clicking the «Invoke action» (not
sure if the name is that in english, sorry) icon in the Klipper applet: it
offers all the installed browsers, text editors, even Calligra Words and
Okular, the problem is that it doesn't work except for the browsers: if you
select Kate, for example, Kate will be opened but the URL won't be copied in a
new text file, as it would be expected.
So, I propose to extend this feature to every copied content: text, URLs,
audiovisual objects..., and of course to make it work, heheh. Something like a
share option like in mobile devices, that besides pasting, as I've said, were
able to send content in Klipper to associated apps, and also by mail, IM
services configured in KDE Telepathy or Pidgin, by Bluetooth or shared
networks, cloud storage...
I think a new "paradigm" in this second decade of this century could be not
just a copy/paste function but a copy/paste/share one, like in Android.
Reproducible: Always
