Me: > BTW, I have a potential user workaround I was almost afraid to mention that: sure enough, LC bombed out after I did! :D So to be clear, this will NOT solve the issue. (User workarounds are only bandaids at best.) Disclaimer: This LC bug needs a real fix. It locks up the clipboard, and perhaps any user copy/paste could trigger it. The end-user has to restart your app to paste again. But...this may help A LITTLE with A FEW use cases, especially IN-HOUSE workflows where YOU are the user. Disciplined user workaround: I am manually copying info from a web browser and LC works on the clipboard contents. Previously the LC clipboard would hang often, so I had to restart LC 2 or 3 times a day. When creating the test stack and bug recipe, faster clipboard access helped trigger it. So I tried making my manual copying actions slower and more deliberate: more time after and between selections to copy, etc. "Slow Is Smooth, and Smooth Is Fast." Results: Now I have to restart LC every 2 or 3 days. A bit better. (Disciplined users only!) :) Best wishes, Curry Kenworthy WordLib: Import MS Word and OpenOffice files in LiveCode!
