SUMMARY Cut files in Dolphin cannot be pasted after closing the Dolphin window before completing the paste operation. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Dolphin file manager. 2. Right-click a file/folder and select "Cut". 3. Close the Dolphin window without performing the "Paste" operation. OBSERVED RESULT The clipboard retains the "Cut" state, but pasting is impossible in the desktop environment (e.g., Plasma desktop) or other applications. EXPECTED RESULT The clipboard should allow pasting the cut file(s) even if Dolphin is closed after the "Cut" operation, consistent with standard desktop behavior. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20250624 KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.15.0 Qt Version: 6.9.1 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION - Graphics Platform: Wayland - Kernel Version: 6.15.3-1-default (64-bit) - Graphics Processor: Intel® Graphics
> The clipboard should allow pasting the cut file(s) even if Dolphin is closed after the "Cut" operation, consistent with standard desktop behavior. The "paste" action of actually moving files is performed by dolphin, without it it can't happen (it could but that would be VERY complicated), like the fact that the operation is cut or copy is only tracked by dolphin. Furthermore in Wayland, Clipboard content is not copied but stays in the application and transmitted only on demand. This prevents data leakage between application.
