Feature request: Clipboard Manager Like KDE, Windows 10/11, as a default first-party applet #308

Open iHarryPotter178 opened 4 months ago

The clipboard is a essential feature, at least for me and many others. While working, copying and then finding that item by typing Win+V is great. Gnome desktop requires an extension, which sucks, I've used it on windows and kde and it's great. I hope the devs can add it in Cosmic DE, if not possible right now, maybe in near future.

A clipboard manager would likely still be an applet, but COSMIC applets are integrated into COSMIC DE in a different way from how third-party Gnome extensions are added onto Gnome. I've transferred this feature request to the cosmic-applets repo accordingly.

Technically there is nothing preventing a very deep integration with the rest of the desktop here. Splitting this into an applet only aids maintainability and modularity of the desktop.

FYI, i will be please to integrate my applet https://github.com/wiiznokes/cosmic-clipboard-manager in this repo.

What integration are you thinking of ? The only feature i see will be to show the window on the cursor, and subscribing a global shortcut, but maybe it could be made with an applet idk

Maybe it could pull up the emoji picker as well, i think windows 11 does something similar.

Shameless self promo: I'm also working on a clipboard manager that will integrate with COSMIC (https://github.com/SUPERCILEX/clipboard-history).

@SUPERCILEX You can make another back-end for my applet if you would like. I already have a Wayland watcher here with some fixes: https://github.com/wiiznokes/wl-clipboard-rs/tree/watch

Nice! That will help speed things up, thanks.
