If not, then it looks as if our (or Qt's) connection to the external
clipboard
has been lost.

But can you still paste from outside of LyX with this?

As Vincent said, we'd LOVE to have more information about this bug.
It seems to happen only on some machines, so may have something to
do with what other programs are running, and so forth. If you can
experiment at all along those lines, or even try to keep track of
what you did right before the problem arose, we'd really appreciate
it.

Will do - but do you know if this is a cross-platform issue or a 
windows-specific one? I haven't had any luck pinpointing the culprit (or how to 
replicate this), and it will be helpful to know if this is platform specific.

I'm not sure if this is the same issue. But I've seen something similar on my 
Linux
box. I multi-boot so I can't be completely sure it was my Mageia 5 installation.
which is currently using LyX 2.1.3 as installed from mageia repos with urpmi.
There is a slim chance that I was using antiX or Opensuse when I noticed this. 
But
I'm usually using Mageia when I write.

I'm not so sure it ties into how long LyX has been running. But when it happens 
the
only available paste option is the paste recent one. In my case it seems to 
have more
to do with where I copied/cut the contents of the clipboard from. Usually it 
happens
when I use an online dictionary to confirm that I've got the right word. 
Typically I
keep browser tabs open to vocabulary.com & yourdictionary.com...
Once I'm sure I have the word I want to use I tend to copy it to the clipboard 
rather
than risk mistyping it when I switch back to LyX.

Sometimes it works. Sometimes it won't let me paste it. Which can start 
happening
just as soon as I start LyX. But for certain, once it starts happening, it 
doesn't
spontaneously resume working correctly.

What I found always works is to switch to a blank leafpad document. Which will 
let me
paste the word that LyX wouldn't. Then markall {^a} and cut {^x} switch back to 
LyX,
which never refuses to let me paste something from a plain text document.

If I used windows, I'd probably try walking the text through notepad or some 
such.

Is there any debug code that we can put in that would allow users who
experience the issue to report back to us some information that would
help us narrow down the issue?

Or if it is possibly a Qt bug, then just hope that Qt 5.6 improves
things?

I know of no reports that aren't on Windows.

My fear is that it is really a Qt bug.

This happens to me (with all versions of lyx that I have been using so 
far)  when I leave the file in lyx open for too long (for days, for 
example). I resolve it by simply shutting it off and then restarting. 
It is not a serious problem.
