Qt6/Wayland clipboard: pasted Unicode converted to escapes

[AlexTP]

I am not sure ppl understand which widgetset my app uses. It is Qt6 widgetset, not Gtk2.

Yes it seems a GTK2 issue when used on Wayland, which actually makes it a Wayland issue ?

Gtk2 does not work on wayland afaik, correct me if I'm wrong, maybe under xwayland, but that's another story.

My previous post is edited by me. Changes the context alas a bit.
I blame it on that only recently I was released in the wild again after surgery.

Hope you're well!

Alex, probably would have been useful to post a summary of the end user's bug report in your initial post here. I suspect many people here are reluctant to go off forum looking at your github. Something like -

Code: [Select]

    CudaText: Qt6 build (cudatext-linux-qt6-amd64-1.231.8.0.tar.xz)

Steps to reproduce:

    Copy Unicode text (ÅÄÖ, emoji, Japanese) from Firefox
    Paste into CudaText

Actual result:

    ÅÄÖ → ???
    Emoji/Japanese (e.g. 🤔思考) → \U0001f914\u601d\u8003
Incidentally, great bug report, you have educated users !

Copying that content from Firefox and then pasting into my app, also a Qt6 Lazarus app but not one that uses SynEdit, works perfectly.
