Description BRULE Herman 2009-06-06 07:46:14 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.4)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

Hello, I had never had this bug with KDE3, since I'm under KDE4 I have bug with klipper.
When I open konsole, I copy text, I can directly past it in konqueror.
But if I close konsole before paste the content of klipper with my text is delete. Then I need always have konsole open during my copy and paste.
Thanks to fix it.

Could you please open the klipper configuration and verify that"prevent empty clipboard" is enabled?
Comment 2 BRULE Herman 2009-06-06 09:24:00 UTC
Yes it's enabled, without it work better, I have read this option as: "If the content of clipboard is empty not add it", should be edited and have tooltip more more informations.
Comment 3 Esben Mose Hansen 2009-06-06 10:00:00 UTC
What the option does is that if the clipboard becomes empty for any reason (e.g. the process owning the clipboard closes), the last entry is selected instead. 

I did not quite understand if this fixed the issue for you?
Comment 4 BRULE Herman 2009-06-06 10:02:48 UTC
Fixed, but add tool tip for warn the user of this case, thanks.
Comment 5 Dario Andres 2009-06-06 15:17:30 UTC
May be the option should be named "prevent clipboard (to) be empty" ? (bad english, but I hope you get the idea). Thanks
Comment 6 BRULE Herman 2009-06-06 15:26:37 UTC
No, the actual option can be rename in "Empty clipboard when application is closed".
Option "Prevent empty clipboard", for prevent QString::isEmpty() not exists.
And all options should be have tool tip, for prevent error at user reading because some text is ambiguous.

When I copy text from firefox to konsole it not show in klipper, bug?
