Bug ID: 490261
Summary: Limit of clipboard history size not indicated
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.1.2
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Clipboard
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: n...@sail.ng
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
When configuring history size of the clipboard, I can only find out by trial
and error that it has an upper limit of 2048 entries. It's not shown anywhere
in the UI, nor in Help (Documentation not Found).
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open clipboard configuration
2. Try to enter a number larger than 2048
3. Use Arrow Up key to scroll it to the upper limit
OBSERVED RESULT
As in SUMMARY.
EXPECTED RESULT
David Edmundson expressed their opinion that a limit beyond 2048 "is
ridiculous": https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=446112
Although it seems arbitrary, I don't want to argue for that here, but the UI
should indicate as such, e.g. "(max 2048)" after the input box, ideally with a
reason.
Also, there should be documentation (ideally, I understand hands are limited;
or is it too simple to be worth writing one for?), and its configuration should
probably go into System Settings.
