Paste not working with Hyprland (wayland support script enabled) about copyq HOT 8 CLOSED

However, changing shortcut to Ctrl+Shift+V will break paste actions for most applications.

Yeah, I thought it might be the case (I only tested it in Firefox and kitty terminal emulator).

Alternate solution would be to check the current window title before triggering the paste:

global.paste = function() {
    const window = currentWindowTitle();
    if (window == 'Alacritty') {
        // Shift+Ctrl+V
        sendShortcut('42:1', '29:1', '47:1', '47:0', '29:0', '42:0');
    } else {
        // Shift+Insert
        sendShortcut('42:1', '110:1', '110:0', '42:0');
    }
}

For now I found a workaround - mapping Shft+Insert chord to a paste action - it works for gnome terminal at least.

  - { key: Insert,         mods: Shift,                           action: Paste            }

For alacritty this line should be set instead of PasteSelection action

Created another issue in https://github.com/hluk/copyq-commands; created MR with edited README for wayland support script.

I picked Shift+Insert because it actually is the default shortcut for pasting (clipboard or selection) in most terminal emulators and applications.

You can try modifying the paste() function to send Ctrl+Shift+V for pasting:

    global.paste = function() {
        sendShortcut('42:1', '29:1', '47:1', '47:0', '29:0', '42:0')
    }

would this eventually help?: #633

Thanks, I'll give it a try.

Thanks! However, changing shortcut to Ctrl+Shift+V will break paste actions for most applications.

Hi! My mr to docs for scripts was merged, so I suppose this may be closed. I tested sollutions from @gowallasnewpony and @hluk - they both works fine as a workaround too, thanks a lot.
