Cut / Copy is not working about play-with-docker

[marcosnils]

Fixed.

Added new shortcut to copy with ctrl + alt + c. Couldn't change default pasting due to browser permissions.

Also, just found that ctrl + insert (copy) and shitft + insert(paste) should also work.

@marcosnils after trying harder, it seems that CTRL+SHIFT+V work on Chrome, but CTRL+SHIFT+C opens the Chrome console panel instead of copy stuff

[guma256]

The following worked for me using Microsoft Edge browser
CTRL + FN + E to copy
CTRL + SHIFT + v to paste

For Google chrome

CTRL + insert to copy
SHIFT + insert to paste

[amakumar-beep]

to copy (CTRL+INSERT)
to paste (SHIFT+INSERT)

[anshumaanbakshi]

in 2021 following 2 works well while using play-with-docker.com

Ctrl + Insert to copy
Shift + Insert to paste

[Jasveer-Shah]

I am on window 10, browser chrome
labs.play-with-docker.com provides linux
the commands worked for me are -
for copy ct+fn+insert
for paste ct+shift+v

[marcosnils]

@Oliboy50 interesting. I'll check it out and come back to you here.

[marcosnils]

@alaagalal yes. Use ctrl + insert to copy and shift + insert to paste.

[Oliboy50]

@marcosnils

• ctrl + shift + v is the Adblock Plus default shortcut for opening the filtered elements list of the current page... so it does something else for me
• shift + insert does not work... However, it prints ^[[2~ when I use it twice

[risacher]

There is a paste button in the Firefox all-purpose dropdown menu, just above the "zoom-in +", which works with xterm.js, when using Firefox-on-windows.

[alaagalal]

ctrl+shift+c ....this is command open inspector of the page
using Ubuntu+Firefox
is there another command or solution for that?

[akki-15]

Ctrl + Insert to copy
Shift + Insert to paste

this worked perfectly fine for me

[Oliboy50]

@medined agreed, it's a real issue on Firefox using Windows, because I'm able to copy using right click, but I'm not able to paste after this... but at least, I can copy/paste using right click on Chrome using Windows

@marcosnils this trick doesn't work on Windows (either using Chrome or Firefox)

[marcosnils]

@Oliboy50 haven't tested on windows. I'll give it a try

[marcosnils]

@Oliboy50 @akalipetis I believe this could be configured in xterm.js but we haven't looked in detail. Woudl you like to investigate and send a PR maybe?

[Oliboy50]

I tried what you suggested, but none of these worked in Firefox on Windows :/

EDIT: ok, you made a small mistake:

ctrl + alt + v

is actually: "ctrl + alt + c" and it works fine for copying stuff, thanks

but the biggest issue is pasting :'(

[marcosnils]

@Oliboy50 ctrl + shift +v should work for pasting as well as shift + insert. Can you please verify?

[marcosnils]

ctrl + shift + v is the Adblock Plus default shortcut for opening the filtered elements list of the current page... so it does something else for me

I don't see that there's much we can do if a non-default browser plugin is interfering with xterm.js shortcuts =(. Maybe you can change Adblock plus default shortcut?

[Oliboy50]

@marcosnils I deactivated the Adblock Plus shortcut, but ctrl + shift + v does not work, it does nothing at all :(

[Oliboy50]

seems like there is an issue opened on xterm.js side xtermjs/xterm.js#418

but it's only related to "context menu", whereas I just cannot paste in xterm.js using Firefox on Windows

[marcosnils]

@Oliboy50 just downloaded latest firefox 51.0.1 in Windows 10 and shift + insert works perfectly. ctrl + shift + v doesn't work though.

[marcosnils]

👍

[alaagalal]

It is working Thanks a lot .

[filips123]

Is it possible to just use Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V for copying and pasting?

[marcosnils]

Nope because the browser overrides it. You need to use ctrl + insert and shift + insert

It's quite strange. ctrl+insert doesn't work for copying and shift+insert works for pasting. What can I check for getting more data? Thanks

Hi,
I am facing the same problem on Win10. I tried all mentioned tricks in the browsers Chrome, Firefox and Edge.
The editor (e.g. Nano, Vim) inside a PWD master is blocking as far as the Shift+Insert or context menu function for paste is used.
Furthermore, I tried this also on another laptop (Win 7) with the same negative result.

I tried some other solutions like, using the PWD Editor, but there I can just drag the file, which I would like to upload and see it's content. Further functions like import, save, etc. is not available.

Lastly I tried to use Putty / WinScp to upload the config file (docker-compose.yaml) but this attempt, fails during establishing the ssh connection, with the error " server send pubic-key".

Some other ideas, to upload or paste file contents to PWD?
Thanks and BR,
Peter

You can just drag & drop a file into the terminal and it'll get uploaded to the current working directory you're standing in.

Strange.. I've tested window setups in the past and never seen issues with copy / paste. I don't have a windows machine, but once I get one I'll try to repro

[bruecp]

Thanks a lot. Drag & Drop into the terminal window did the job. Great.

@marcosnils If you are using a browser like Opera, this shortcut is like a bit torture :) Because they are shortcut for developer tools.
I suppose that ctrl & shift + insert is useful in all browser.
