Tilix: Add "Copy & Paste" context menu item

Created on 12 Jul 2017  路  10Comments  路  Source: gnunn1/tilix

Hi,

I am a happy user of http://roxterm.sourceforge.net/ but it is not maintained lately.
I'd like to switch to Tilix but I miss one functionality that I use very often: copy some text and immediately paste it.

Is it possible to add it ?

I'm trying to upload a small video of the feature in Roxterm but GitHub doesn't accept .mp4 it seems.

Nice feature, especially in a terminal. But I usually use the middle mouse button for it, works even faster: Select text, one middle click, done. Not sure whether this will work on Wayland, tough, does selection pasting exist there?

Interesting!

I do not use mouse, so I don't have middle button.
Let me google how to emulate it with the touchpad!

For me it is three finger tapping on the touchpad, which actually is kinda awkward to use :(

@phw You can also press left and right touchpad buttons simultaneously, but this does not always work as expected.

According to https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/mouse-touchpad-click.html it should by tapping once in the top-right corner but it doesn't work.

press left and right touchpad buttons simultaneously

This works!
I'll try to get used to it!

Thank you!

There's a configurable shortcut as well for Paste Selection in Tilix that defaults to .

Defaults to what ?
