Bug ID: 461301
Summary: Cannot paste from Scintilla GTK widget to KDE apps
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 5.26.0
Platform: Debian testing
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: wayland-generic
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: sh200...@mail.ru
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
If I try to copy some text from Scintilla widget and paste it into a KDE app,
then nothing is pasted. Though, pasting into XWayland or GTK apps works fine.
The bug is reproducible both with Geany 1.38 (
https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/3320 ) and SciTE 5.3.1.
See also: https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/bugs/2361/. Quoting a Scintilla
maintainer,
> Copying the path with the File | Copy Path command does copy to Kate. That is
> using the simpler gtk_clipboard_set_text API instead of
> gtk_clipboard_set_with_data which is called in Scintilla to allow multiple
> formats and asynchronous access. Its likely that the current KDE
> implementation on Wayland has a problem with this API or its use. Since it
> works with GTK applications on Debian + Wayland and also with KDE
> applications on Ubuntu + Wayland, I'd hope that it gets fixed with updates to
> KDE's Wayland support.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Plasma Wayland session
2. Open a Scintilla-based editor (SciTE or Geany)
3. Enter some text and copy it to the clipboard
4. Paste into a KDE app (e.g. Kate)
OBSERVED RESULT
No text is pasted.
EXPECTED RESULT
Copied test must be pasted into the KDE app.
