Description
reasonable and well meant, when Gimp copies selections into the Os specific clipboard, id rather offer that service as a second option, and instead copying clipboard objects always by default in Gimps own clipboard manager. Already for compatibility reasons between the different Operating systems.
I cant remember a time when i used clipboard objects made in Gimp for "outside" use, in another application on my Os.
The only crit for the clipboard dialog is, the manager should have an adjustable entry limit, use a name convention like the one seen in the layers dialog (so no name to enter by default) and have accessible buttons by open images. Currently the toolbar buttons of the clipboard dialog are greyed out -unusable- if we miss to copy something in Gimps clipboard with its specific commands. To be honest, i didnt ever use the clipboard dialog of Gimp, cause it worked the way it does
