(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***) Package: kdevelop Version: KDE 3.0.1 Severity: normal Installed from: SuSE RPMs Compiler: Not Specified OS: Linux OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified I mainly use the programs Kdevelop but I want copy and paste text from other apps. I'm used to select a piece of text to copy it and to press the middle mouse button to paste it. Unfortunately since KDE 3.0 it's absolutely impossible to predict what will be pasted next. I tried to configure it but I didn't get it right. With Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V I also get mostly random results. I really like Kde but this bug makes it almost impossible to work with it.

Hi I know the Clipboard sometimes drives me crazy too... It gets better with= =20 KDE 3.1. Please note that KDE has a Clipboard (CTRL-C CTRL-V) and the X-Server has = one=20 (mark and middle mouse button). Some apps don't stick to that so the wrong= =20 thing might be pasted. Best regards Harry
Yes.. this has to be fixed.. If I mark something with my mouse in a kde app and then paste it into say Phoenix. I wont get the result I wanted.. KDE HAS TO move what is marked with the mouse to the correct buffer and keep it's own buffer for Ctrl+C Ctrl+V KDE also seem to block copying from certain text fields. like the Doc's in Kdevelop (gideon) so I can't cut 'n paste example code...
