Issue with copy/paste from VNC to Linux and Windows machine

  1. Default Issue with copy/paste from VNC to Linux and Windows machine

    Hi All,

    I am working on VNC and copying text to the clipboard using the
    following cmds.

    $mainWindow->clipboardClear;
    $mainWindow->clipboardAppend($text);

    But when I am trying to paste on the linux or windows platform it
    shows random behavior.
    It sometime paste correct value.
    Sometime doesn't paste anything.
    Sometime it pastes incorrect value.

    Please let me know what to do to make the behavior correct?

    Thanks in advance,
    /Robert

    Hi,

    The issue might not be related to Tk, but more to the fact, that there
    are two different schemes to copy/paste.

    You could try to run autocutsel on your vnc server, which tries to
    synchronize both potential copy/paste buffers.

    ASee followign article:
