Hello,

How do we access the clipboard with FWT? Is there any API?

Thanks for your answer,

Regards

Unfortunately there is no such API. As a workaround you can use fwt::TextWidget.copy and fwt::TextWidget.paste.

However in a browser you can't access the clipboard directly, so it's tricky to make clipboard implementation in FWT works both for SWT and JavaScript.

OK, I will try using the SWT dnd API.

Thanks

Well, after trying using SWT, I need a way to get swt's Display object in my FWT application.

Otherwise, it would be nice to have "onCopy", "onCut" and "onPaste" events for some widgets, that way I think it is possible with the browser.

But if I can get the Display object, I would be very happy too.

OK, I managed copy'n paste with a hidden Text widget.

Thanks for the answer.

I added a proper Clipboard API. For now it just supported plaintext and doesn't get into MIME encoded clipboard data, images, etc; changeset

This API will only work in SWT, JS doesn't have access to the clipboard.
