Bug ID: 118052
Summary: Libreoffice 5.4 cannot copy paste in certain
instances.
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.4.7.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: dudemr at yahoo.com
Description:
I have Libreoffice 5.4.7.2 (x64)
Win 10 Home 64 bit
virtualbox5.2.12r
This is a new laptop 5 days old and i have reloaded windows, so all drivers and
files are new and not corrupted. I did install the JRE to use Libre database,
but removed the entry in tools/advanced in trying to troubleshoot the copy
paste problem and figured that the JVM isolation may have been the issue.
When virtualbox is open and running an XP session it is not possible to use the
copy paste in libre office writer properly.
If I open Chrome or Edge and copy parts of a page using right click copy then
libre office writer then do a right click, PASTE greyed out.
PASTE SPECIAL is available but its options are not available.
Most times I am able to do a CTRL-V and the data in the clipboard will paste.
If I go to MS one note or Wordpad I can right click/paste properly, even with
Virtualbox open, so the clipboard seems to be operating normally. THerefore the
issue is with Writer and how it interfaces with the clipboard.
If I close Virtualbox and repeat all the steps the copy/paste works normally
for Libre Writer. I do not know if there are other apps that affect Writer
similarly.
I have not tested the other Libre apps with copy/paste.
I notice that there are many closed bugs for the same issue, so I opened a new
one and am trying to be very specific.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.open virtualbox xp session, Writer, MS Wordpad, Chrome or Edge
2. Highlight and copy a part of a webpage using right click /copy or ctrl-c
3. Right-click in Writer. Paste is not available but sometimes CTRL-V works
4. Right click in Wordpad, copy paste works fine.
5. Close Virtualbox. repeat steps and all works fine.
Actual Results:
Copy paste is not functioning when some other apps are open
Sometimes Ctrl-v will work
Expected Results:
Need copy paste to work reliably.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
This is a 5 day old laptop and windows has been reloaded 1 day ago to ensure
the files are all fine.
Don't know how to check open gl.
