--- Comment #30 from Zak McKracken <Zak.McKracken at gmx.de> ---
My setup:
openSUSE Tumbleweed, LibreOffice Version: 6.3.0.4, Build-ID: 30(Build:4)

I tried a few things, and found the following:

1: Initially, the preferences are set to auto-scroll. I'd prefer insert.

2: After setting it to "paste the clipboard", LO wants to restart. I close LO,
click the file I'd been editing in Dolphin, and middle click does nothing

3: I set it do "do nothing", restart again, no change

4: After seeing the thread on ask.libreoffice [1], I set it to "insert
clipboard", started writer from the commandline, with the filename as argument.
Then tried to copy something into the document from a console window --
select/insert works!

5: Same trick within the same document works now! I closed LO again, opened via
doubleclick: Still works, directly.

6: Set it to "do nothing" -- middle click really does nothing

7: back to "insert clipboard": still does nothing, and I have to restart before
it works again, despite no message to this effect.


...So maybe there's something going wrong the first time the feature is being
used?
