Comment 1 Paul 2019-04-27 16:55:49 UTC

Isn't that behaviour governed by the "Prevent Empty Clipboard" setting in klipper.

Comment 2 Patrick Silva 2020-06-14 16:46:28 UTC

This behavior is only reproducible when "Prevent Empty Clipboard" is unchecked in klipper settings.
I think that it's the expected behavior in this case.
