---------------------------------------
Summary: Clipboard behavior regressions since GUACAMOLE-55
Key: GUACAMOLE-82
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-82
Project: Guacamole
Issue Type: Bug
Components: guacamole
Reporter: Michael Jumper
Fix For: 0.9.10-incubating
The Guacamole clipboard in the menu/sidebar has been behaving oddly since
GUACAMOLE-55. I suspect this has to do with the switch to using a
"content-editable" div, rather than a traditional textarea.
Thus far, I have noticed the following:
# Focus is unexpectedly given to the clipboard by default on mobile devices,
causing the keyboard to open when the screen is tapped. While this sounds like
it might be a good thing, mobile on-screen keyboards do not fire traditional
keyboard events, so this does not actually work. Further, dismissing the
keyboard is difficult if not impossible; it just keeps opening disruptively.
# When rich text is pasted within the clipboard, formatting is sometimes
maintained even though the current intent of the clipboard field is that
formatting should be stripped.
# Spaces and newlines are not handled consistently. Spaces are sometimes pasted
within the remote desktop as non-breaking spaces, while newlines are sometimes
dropped entirely.
It may be worth considering going back to a textarea for the sake of stability,
and re-opening GUACAMOLE-55 for a different release.
