Clipboard behaviour between 2 pub. apps.

[Impuls]

Hi guys,

I was wondering about the clipboard behaviour between 2 pub. applications.

For example, I copy something from an excel file and paste it in a word file.

Does it use the local clipboard of the computer or does the datatransfer stays on the server, as it's within the same session.

This depends mostly how the application uses the clipboard.
There are 2 methods

1. The clipboard data is changed immediately (normally for small data), in this case the data is copied to the local clipboard as well.

2. Delayed rendered, the data is only copied to the clipboard only when it is actually pasted, and only the requested format is copied.

Office applications are likely to use the latter one

So, this means that for example :

I press copy in a published excel, nothing goes to local clipboard

I press paste in a published word (same server), the local clipboard gets filled with the excel info and then paste it into the word.

It's not possible to tunnel the data over the clipboard on the server ?

Thx
B.
