Description Richard Neill 2006-04-29 04:28:24 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.2)
Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs
OS:                Linux

Sometimes, I accidentally select whitespace. This usually happens when I am clicking in a konsole window to give it focus, and drag slightly(*) by mistake. Then, my clipboard is gone. So, it might be nice to (optionally) have klipper totally ignore a selection which consists entirely of whitespace.

I know about Ctrl-Alt-V, so it's hardly a serious problem, and I have also discovered focus-follows-mouse. But I thought I'd mention it in case you like the idea. Feel free to discard if you think it's wrong.


(*)This is quite easy to do on trackpoint-type keyboards; more so than with normal mice.
