--- Comment #87 from jelsey at gmail.com ---
I am using Windows 10 and version 6.3.2.2 of LibreOffice.
The inability to copy text from an application (Chrome, Wordpad, etc) into
LibreOffice apps is very frustrating. Once content from LibreOffice is copied
to the clipboard, content from an external application does not seem to get put
into whatever clipboard LibreOffice is using for the "paste" function.

Example sequence: 
  1. Open xls document in Calc (no other LibreOffice apps open)
  2. Copy & Paste text from Chrome into Calc - PASSES 
  3. Copy & Paste text from within Calc (i.e. from one cell to another) -
PASSES 
  4. Copy & Paste text from Chrome (same as #2 above) into Calc - FAILS content
from #3 above is pasted instead
  5. Paste text (from #4) above into WordPad - PASSES 
  6. Copy & Paste text from WordPad (from #5 above) into Calc - FAILS content
from #3 above is pasted instead
  7. Open Writer w/ empty document
  8. Paste into Writer - FAILS content from #3 above is pasted instead
  9. Paste again into WordPad - PASSES 
 10. Close down Calc and Writer
 11. Open Writer again
 12. Copy & Past into Writer from WordPad - FAILS content from #3 above is
pasted instead
 13. Close down Writer
 14. Ensure no LibreOffice processes are running (via Task Manager - ending all
associated processes)
 15. Open Writer again
 16. Copy & Paste into Writer from WordPad - PASSES
 17. Copy & Paste text within Writer - PASSES
 18. Copy & Paste into Writer from WordPad - FAILS content from #17 above is
pasted instead

Please resolve this issue- it is very frustrating to use LibreOffice when this
functionality is so often not working properly.
