[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1879968] Re: Copy/paste still sometimes fails in LibreOffice and Wine apps
Gosh, @vanvugt, I run 20.04, everything up to date, and this bug still seems present. I wonder why people thought it was fixed. Could the fix still not be pushed out to the repos? -- n -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1879968 Title: Copy/paste still sometimes fails in LibreOffice and Wine apps Status in Mutter: Fix Released Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in mutter source package in Focal: Fix Released Bug description: In Ubuntu 19.10 and 20.04 there was a bug that caused copy and paste operations to fail pretty often: the text that was pasted was not the text that was just copied. See the long discussion at bug #1852183. The bug was recently marked closed, since the package mutter - 3.36.2-1ubuntu1~20.04.1 landed in focal-updates and makes the bug occur much less frequently. Unfortunately the bug still exists, and is not difficult to reproduce. I am running Ubuntu 20.04 and have the new 3.36.2-1ubuntu1~20.04.1 version of mutter. I just opened two LibreOffice Writer windows side by side, and repeatedly selected some text in the left window, copied it, then attempted to paste it into the right window. In my experiment, approximately 1 in every 20 paste operations failed: it did not paste the text that was just copied, but instead the text that was copied before that. Now, an error rate of 1 in 20 may not seem so bad. On the other hand, if you spend all day writing a document and copy and paste dozens of times during the day, then you may hit this bug multiple times per day (as I have been recently), which is a significant annoyance. I tested in LibreOffice since that is where I have seen the bug most often, but I have also seen it occur in other applications as well.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1451944] Re: Gnome-terminal in Ubuntu Unity shrinks to minimum size
I'm on the Ambiance theme with 15.10 and I see my gnome terminal windows shrink gradually, getting smaller and smaller, losing rows and columns over time. They don't go down to 1x1 instantly. It's gradual. I periodically resize them back up to 80x24. This sticks for a while but then as I use the computer they terminal windows start to notch down in size. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1451944 Title: Gnome-terminal in Ubuntu Unity shrinks to minimum size Status in GNOME Terminal: Confirmed Status in GNOME Themes Standard: Confirmed Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When I open a terminal in Ubuntu 15.04, it shrinks to 1 character by 1 character. I can use the corner resizer to make the window bigger, but it immediately shrinks to 1x1. There are a few x,y combinations that allow the window to stay at the desired size, but if you're off by a pixel, the window shrinks to 1x1.

I tried to follow the instructions: In KDE, go to System Settings. Return to the overview if you are not already there. In the Workspace Appearance and Behavior section, click Window Behavior. In the area to the left, click the Window Rules icon. but, there is no Workspace Appearance and Behavior section.
