Type Clipboard Issue

avatar

Hi RDM Team,

we have a problem with "Type Clipboard". It's always missing the first char.
In a Jumpsession it's complety unreliable. Like missing more than one char at the beginning or pasting the same char randomly multiple times, so the pasted string is completly wrong.
STRG+V works as intended.

we have RDM 2023.2.33.0 64-bit installed.

Example for copying "admin" username:
STRG+V: admin
Type Clipboard: dmin

Hello,

If you update to version 2023.3.28.0 do you get the same issue ?

Note that a database upgrade may be necessary if you're using an SQL Server or Azure SQL data source.

For more on that, click here: https://docs.devolutions.net/rdm/windows/installation/database-upgrade/

Hi Zachary,

I could update to 2023.3.28 yesterday and the issue still remains. First char is missing.
Now I get the same behaviour in simple rdp sessions as in jump connections, that the type clipboard spams chars multiple times, so the pasted password is completly wrong and not only missing the first char. But this seems only to occur if I press the Type Clipboard button again.

Hello,

Thank you very much for confirming this,

I will attempt to test this internally to see if I can manage to reproduce the bug that you're experiencing.

I'll update you with my results as soon as I have them.

Just to be clear, this is only happening with jump sessions correct ?

Best regards,

No it's also happening in RDP-Sessions.

A bug ticket was opened internally,

We will be sure to update you once this fix is released.

Hi,

any news regarding this issue?

Hello

Thank for for your patience.

any news regarding this issue?


Yes, I've made changes here that I'm hopeful will fix this. The changes were approved internally but I've been waiting for some stabilization to happen following the 2024.1 release. That stabilization phase should be complete today, which means my changes will be merged today or tomorrow and arrive in an imminent release.

Please hold on for a few more days and I should be able to update this thread with some solid information on those fixes getting release.

Let me know if something isn't clear

Thanks and kind regards,

Hello

Thank you for your patience. I've integrated an update for the "Type Clipboard" feature that I hope will iron out these issues and improve accuracy. With the changes, the custom entry in the RDM .cfg file is no longer necessary (although leaving it present won't have a negative side-effect).

Those changes should be available with the 2024.1.19 release; I'll confirm by updating this post at that time.

Once again, thank you for your patience

Thanks and kind regards,
