Description

When there are multiple screens connected to my mac, when I press CMD+Shift+C, maccy will show on the correct screen. But when I select the one that I want to be pasted, it will paste it on the main screen of the laptop.

Does this happen in all applications or only some specific?

p0deje commented 6 months ago

Closing since no response. Please re-open with asked information.

This happens in chrome, but not in sublime nor firefox. it's quite frustrating =/

p0deje commented 5 months ago

@mustafa0x I see the issues reported from time-to-time related to Chrome, but I cannot ever reproduce the issue and users report it goes away. Can you record a video from 2 screens and share what exactly happens? I'm not sure how to record video from multiple screens though, but there seem to be apps for that.

mustafa0x commented 5 months ago

i think this bug is new. not sure what changed.

steps

laptop + external display
external display is main display
chrome is on both screens
i am typing in chrome in external display
i press cmd+shift+v
i select item to paste
chrome on external display loses focus
chrome on laptop becomes focused, and content is pasted in it

p0deje commented 5 months ago

I've got exactly the same setup and I cannot reproduce the issue. That's why I'm asking for a video, maybe I can spot something else that happens which lead to the bug.

mustafa0x commented 5 months ago

Hah, updating chrome fixed!

Thanks @p0deje.

I'm on MacOS Sonoma 14.4.1 with Chrome 123.0.6312.59 and I'm experiencing this issue: I have my MacBook Pro laptop connected via one USB-C cable to a dock that connects to two external displays. This specific test follows this behavior:

Have Chrome open on both my laptop screen (main display) and a separate Chrome window on extended display one
Focus my cursor on extended display text field
Shift + CMD + C to open Maccy menu
Click text to paste (I have Paste Automatically turned on)
Notice text is pasted on main display despite cursor being on extended display

Here is a video recording of that happening: https://imgur.com/a/xN3eLej

Update: I'm new to Maccy. Exploring the settings/preferences, I just tried enabling "Avoid taking application focus" in the Advanced tab and it seems to have fixed this issue. Pasting now pastes on whichever text field I am focused on
