Feature changed by: Andreas Jaeger (a_jaeger) Feature #306173, revision 3 - Title: delayed insert for clipboard paste actions + Title: Delayed insert for clipboard paste actions openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Neutral Requested by: Ciaran Farrell (babelworx) Description: One thing which has annoyed me since SUSE 9 is the interaction between (etc) KDE and the (x)clipboard. After selecting a text in a browser, etc, one would expect to be able to use the middle mouse button, or possibly ctrl-v to paste the selected text into another application. This works sometimes. However, more often than not, the expected result does not come about - either a completely different text is pasted (e. g. an 'older' clipboard entry) or nothing at all. Pasting something which you don't mean to paste into an application such as IRC, IM or a web form could mean sending information which you never meant to send - particularly if the pasting action automatically triggers submission. Thus, maybe it would be possible (in the absence of clipboard being made work as expected - and yes, I have tried all the options such as sync etc) to have a delayed insert whereby there would be a timeout of, e.g. 3 seconds after pasting. The user would have 3 seconds to frantically hit "STOP!" before the text is automatically sent. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306173
