Copy to clipboard not working - Linux #39

Closed justanalias1 closed 7 years ago

justanalias1 commented 7 years ago

When clicking on a listed item the notification of the copied message shows in my corner as expected. However neither CTRL + V nor middle mouse button pastes the message. Seems like the text is not claimed at all.

Arch Linux x64 Xorg Xfwm4 (from xfce4)

Thanks for reporting! I'll try on a Ubuntu distribution to see if I can reproduce the bug there. I'm using a node module to copy strings to the clipboard and maybe it doesn't support Linux for some reason. I'll keep you posted.

It seems that the node module I'm using (copy-paste) requires the xclip clipboard manager to be installed on Linux distributions. Could you check if it's installed on yours?

xclip was the missing dependency. After installing it works as expected.

Thank you alot and keep up the good work. The Linux support is very appreciated.

Good to know, I added a note to the README :)

The Linux support is very appreciated.

You're welcome! Electron really helps on that matter.
