After some investigation it turned out that the culprit was the Lazarus IDE itself! What happened was that when I coipy text inside Lazarus it does not reach through VNC to the PC. But the other way is OK! The workaround I found is to open an Non-Lazarus edit window on the Pi and after copying text in Lazarus switch to that edit window and paste it (this will work). Now go to the place in Windows where the text needs to go and paste it. This also works! It seems like the Lazarus clipboard is incomplete inasmuch as it only targets the internal Pi clipboard but as soon as one pastes inside another editor application on the pi it rectifies itself and the text is now available also in Windows via VNC. I have reported this here before but got no real solution to it. If I use any other Raspbian application to copy text it is immediately available via VNC in Windows, it is just the Lazarus code editor that is broken. Even copying properties from the component property editor in Lazarus works fine, just not the thing one REALLY wants to work i.e. the copy from the code editor does not work through VNC. -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
