@p0lygun so these two issues are duplicates?

[p0lygun]

@Julian-O yes

This works correctly on Kivy 2.2.1
I recommend closing this issue.

This works correctly on Kivy 2.2.1 I recommend closing this issue.

I don't know if I am doing something wrong, but I am using Kivy 2.2.1 and still find the same behavior. When we press win + v, the clipboard opens but the selected items would not be pasted. We will have to again press ctrl + v to paste the selected text.

@ElliotGarbus: Would you care to comment?

I misspoke earlier. This is still an issue.
Here is the issue: Cut and paste using cntrl+c cnrtl+v works as expected.

The issue is when working with paste history on Windows. When pressing Win+v the paste history panel comes up (as shown in the video), Selecting a paste buffer should directly paste into the text input. It instead requires an additional cntrl-v to paste the selected paste buffer into the TextInput.

The TextInput requires an extra cntrl-v when pasting from the Windows clipboard history pallet.

i'll try to fix this over the weekend.

@Julian-O @p0lygun I am also facing issue in using "home" and "end" buttons in TextInput on windows. When I am using the TextInput and press "home" I want the cursor to move at the start of the text, but it is staying in the same place and not responding to the command. Same with the "end". Just wanted to inform so you can decide if this can be clubbed with this or needs to open another issue.

@ReetiMauryaCrest: I'd like to see that as a separate issue. Please raise a bug report. Thank you.

Just for confirming it is a Windows only issue, I've tested here on Linux and it works fine.
