Multiple Copy&Paste issues (X11)

Open rmottola opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Copy&Paste has multiple issues, especially when working with other applications (e.g. GIMP, LibreOffice...) Let me track cumulatively what works and what not.

Works:

  • Copy&Paste within PRICE of small/medium sized images
  • Copy&Paste within PRICE of big images (just fixed) in a clean status
  • Copy from PRICE to GIMP of medium sized image
  • Copy from GIMP to PRICE of medium sized image
  • Copy from Ink to LibreOffice of Rich Text in a "clean" environment

Does Not work:

  • [x] Copy from PRICE to GIMP of big images (after a long while: There is no image data in the clipboard to paste)
  • [x] Copy from GIMP to PRICE of big images
  • [ ] Copy from PRICE to GIMP of 16bit
  • [ ] Copy from GIMP to PRICE of 16bit
  • [ ] Copy from LibreOffice to Ink of Rich Text: only standard text is copied
  • [ ] Copy from Ink to LibreOffice of Rich Text may have spurious information (e.g also copies an unknown image.tiff name) after playing around with copy&pasting

Just discovered that copying 16bit image from and to PRICE&GIMP does not work. 16bit PRICE->GIMP yields a broken 8bit image 16bit GIMP->PRICE yields a correct image, but converted to 8bit
