Hi, consider this snippet:
from PyQt5.Qt import *
from PyQt5.Qsci import QsciScintilla
if __name__ == '__main__':
app = QApplication([])
w = QsciScintilla()
w.setText("hello world")
w.show()
app.exec_()
*Test1) *Run it, press ctrl+c, close the window and then open your system
clipboard viewer... for some reason on windows7 the is broken, you'll
binary content --> this
<https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/gtf9cgg1cygbre4/clipbrd_2019-06-14_12-56-37.png>
. That
means you won't be able to paste the content on a text editor.
*Test2) *Run it, press ctrl+c and then open your system clipboard viewer,
in this case you'll be able to see the copied content correctly, like this
<https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/8xq5riznnxs07cg/clipbrd_2019-06-14_12-59-06.png>
.
This issue has really annoyed me in the past many times but I didn't know
how to reproduce it or what was the reason why the content I'd copied from
my app couldn't be pasted anymore
