It does disappear when empty, which is what I want for less clutter and to know
if I have anything stored.
History is set to seven and to drop contents at logoff.

Update.
I did some testing with new account, it seems to work there so I nuked my
klipperrc.
It still didn't work, after setting klipper to "never remove contents" I seem
to get  good results.

So I'm guessing it's a matter of PEBKAC or not nuking config files from time to
time as I used to do during 4 to 5 transition which helped in a lot of cases.

This is an Arch install from 2017 mind you.


klipperrc after nuking and configuring:

[General]
IgnoreSelection=true

Thank you for your patience, now I need to get rid of that nasty habit of
keeping windows open until stuff is pasted, even on Windows, g.

I'll mark if as WORKSFORME as I'm not sure if it was my stupidity or something
else.

"Show when needed" means that it will appear when its history has at least one
item in it, and it will disappear when empty. Are you seeing that, or some
other behavior? What is your history size set to?

Contents of klipperrc file, I assume that version string tells me when it was
created as I use plasma 5.21.3.

[General]
IgnoreImages=false
IgnoreSelection=true
KeepClipboardContents=false
PreventEmptyClipboard=false
Version=5.17.5

Klipper is set to "show when needed" in tray settings.

I did watch the video, and I noticed that the Klipper icon is now visible in
your System Tray, which is why I asked. Have you disabled it in the System Tray
settings? Can you attach a screenshot of your System Tray's "Entries" page?

Nope, I always had that problem with Plasma. When I close window from which I
copied stuff it just isn't "selected" in clipboard and pasting will do nothing.

Please watch attachment video, it's in Polish but copy/paste button has icons.

This is what happens when you disable or uninstall Klipper (the clipboard
system tray applet). Have you done so?
