Bug ID: 491924
Summary: Clipboard is auto-synced on connection establishment
though pref is off
Classification: Applications
Product: kdeconnect
Version: 23.08.5
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: common
Assignee: albertv...@gmail.com
Reporter: roy-orbit...@devo.net.au
CC: andrew.g.r.hol...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
On my PC, in KDE Connect's device settings for my phone, Clipboard is enabled
but its setting to automatically share is off. This preference seems to be
ignored when devices establish a connection on the same network.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enable clipboard sharing on PC and Android devices. Set PC to not auto share
anything.
2. Ensure devices are not connected to same LAN (e.g. temporarily disable wifi
on phone).
3. Wait for PC to register that it's lost the connection to the phone.
4. Copy something unique on PC, i.e. not in clipboard history, or modify the
last clipboard item.
5. Connect devices to same LAN again.
OBSERVED RESULT
Clipboard of Android device now contains the last item copied on the desktop,
despite no explicit share (hamburger menu > Send Clipboard). I actually get a
standard copy popup on my phone, with share and edit options, as if I had done
it there.
EXPECTED RESULT
No change to Android clipboard.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Kubuntu 24.04
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.11
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.115.0
Qt Version: 5.15.13
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The pref is respected and further copy actions aren't propagated whilst a
connection is maintained.
