[jira] [Commented] (GUACAMOLE-1186) Clipboard issue that can't paste the image data when changing the focus

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-1186?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17203035#comment-17203035 ] 

Mike Jumper commented on GUACAMOLE-1186:
----------------------------------------

I don't believe this is a bug. Guacamole does not currently support copy/paste of images, and so the client side cannot be aware of any non-text changes to the remote clipboard. When you switch to another tab, application, etc. on the client side, Guacamole will attempt to resync the remote clipboard with the contents of the client clipboard. This is intentional, however since the client clipboard does not contain the previously-copied image, it has the counterintuitive effect of clearing what was copied.

> I found one clipboard issue when working on the remote server over the apache guacamole client built from the latest source.
>  
> The test case follows as below:
>  # Connect to the remote server (Windows 10, 64bit) via the Apache Guacamole Client.
>  # Open NotePad, type some text, press Ctrl+A to select all text, copy it by pressing Ctrl+C.
>  # Open WordPad and press Ctrl+V to paste the clipboard.
>  # Open Paint, draw any shapes, press CTrl+A to select all, and press Ctrl+C to copy it.
>  # Select WordPad to press Ctrl+V to paste the clipboard.
>  # Move the focus from Chrome with the opened guacamole client to another application.
>  # Move back to the guacamole client page of Chrome.
>  # Select WordPad to press Ctrl+V to paste the clipboard.
>  
> In step 8, we can see the issue.
> That's, we can't paste the image, but can paste only the text copied in the previous step.
>  
> When performed the above test case in the FreeRDP (xfreerdp) and the MS RDP client (mstsc.exe), I can't see this issue.
>  
> For more information, please see the attached video files.

> Thanks.
