Description Aries-Belgium 2007-01-18 20:09:58 CET
When I copy something from a file opened in mousepad, then close mousepad and try to paste it in another mousepad window or another application, it doesn't work. mousepad seems to clear the clipboard, both Ctrl-V as the builtin Linux method, when closing. It only works when I keep the mousepad window open.

Reproduce:
1. Copy something from a mousepad window
2. Close that window
3. Try to paste it somewhere else.

Actual result:
The copied text isn't pasted.

Expected result:
The text is pasted and it will be in the clipboard memory until it's overwritten.

This is just the way X works.You can't copy from ANY closed application. Try copying from Firefox window, closing all of Firefox, and then pasting into Mousepad - nada.
