The screenshot appearing on the Clipboard manager, but not able to copy / paste it down.

Bug:
Whenever i try to get screenshot using any screenshot software, It does get saved into clipboard and is visible at the clipboard manager. But I couldn't paste it sometimes in certain conditions (such as screenshots of terminal / screenshots of desktop), even clicking on the clipboard's saved image won't help.


Probable Cause:  
This is possibly due to Race condition, where the user is doing multiple things at once (in a program, like not the user but in the code) and it edits the same thing like the same var but in different threads.
