> NB picks up external clipboard _content_ on focus re-activation. It doesn't > poll to get the actual external _history_. Well, it doesn't poll, so that is strictly correct. But flavor listeners might fire when the window isn't focused, ~~so the history could include all external changes~~. Except on Windows where they are removed on focus loss because of issues with external changes. See comment in NbClipboard -https://bz.apache.org/netbeans/show_bug.cgi?id=247585 EDIT : actually, missed there's also code to ignore the changes when not focused anyway - https://github.com/apache/netbeans/blob/master/platform/o.n.bootstrap/src/org/netbeans/NbClipboard.java#L313 So the listeners are still attached but not propagating the changes to the history on other OS. On X11 the external changes are a bit hit and miss anyway - on my system only the first external change fires. All in all, it's the internal changes that we need to worry about, and they need an alternative solution now that we're not registering NbClipboard as the default clipboard.
