i downloaded via gnome extension

Thank you for testing this out! 🙏

Would you mind please running the following in your terminal (preferably right after a login) and see if you can find the error there, with the filename and line of the exception?

$ journalctl -f /usr/bin/gnome-shell

Thanks!

Edit:
Tried to reproduce it but for me it seems to work.

1. What distro are you on?
2. What gnome-shell version exactly? (gnome-shell --version)
3. Did you set anything in the settings?

[schlagmichdoch]

Can confirm this works on GNOME Shell 45.rc since updating a few days ago.

[Tudmotu]

Thank you @schlagmichdoch . Did you install it from extensions.gnome.org or from Git?

[schlagmichdoch]

from extensions.gnome.org

[Tudmotu]

Got it. Thank you! 🙏

I have the same problem. I'm using Fedora 39 prerelease and gnome shell 45.rc. I installed this extension from extensions.gnome.org and can see all settings.

[wuqso]

The error is there when running

$ journalctl -f /usr/bin/gnome-shell

[Tudmotu]

@wuqso can you please share the error message, filename, line number and stack trace?

[Tudmotu]

Thank you all. There is indeed an issue on GNOME 45.0, which does not exist on 45.beta.1.

Working on fixing it now.

[Tudmotu]

@wuqso @hrdkmishra @Valeryan24 Thank you all for reporting this!
I've uploaded a new version to e.g.o.
Would really appreciate if you could install v52 and let me know if the extension works 🙏

[Valeryan24]

Version 52 works well for me on Ubuntu and Gnome 45.rc, thanks for the quick upgrade !

[Tudmotu]

Thank you for testing it out @Valeryan24 🙏

Hi - while version 52 mostly works for me, opening the settings is still broken with the following message:

The settings of extension clipboard-indicator@tudmotu.com had an error:

TypeError: (intermediate value).SpinRow is not a constructor

[Tudmotu]

Thanks for reporting @rmader. I can't reproduce this but I will look into it.
Can you please tell me the exact version of GNOME you are running? (gnome-shell --version)
Also if this a fresh install, or did you upgrade Clipboard Indicator from an older version?

[rmader]

Sorry, my bad. SpinRow is a libadwaita 1.4 feature which I didn't have on my system yet - and while it's not required by GS 45, it's practically part of the Gnome 45 release. After updating that the settings work again.

[Tudmotu]

@rmader thank you for the update! Glad to hear it works now 🙂

[wuqso]

The new version works but the clipboard is always empty. What's the problem?

[Tudmotu]

@wuqso Do you see any errors in journalctl /usr/bin/gnome-shell?
Also does pasting not work either?

[wuqso]

All errors are libinput errors. Pasting works fine with the middle button of the mouse.

[wuqso]

The clipboard is also always empty in the extension 'clipman' on my system. Do I need any extra apps?

[Tudmotu]

@wuqso ctrl+v doesn't paste?
Does it work when you disable all extensions?

[wuqso]

After some trials, I found I need to use the right button of the mouse to 'copy' the text into the clipboard. I would prefer to copy the text into the clipboard by just highlighting the text.

[Tudmotu]

@wuqso yes this is one of the oldest and most requested features for this extension: #8
I might try to implement it some when soon. Now that we had to drop support for older versions, it should be easier.
If anyone else would like to give it a stab, I'll happily merge a PR. If anyone is interested please reach out to me via email and I'll explain how it should probably work. It won't be simple though.
