When I try to copy-paste non English text (ie Greek) from remote computer to local (and vice – versa), text appears very strange (as it has wrong encoding). I also tried realVNC and UltraVNC (both servers and viewers), but they behave differently (non English text doesn't appear at all). Are there any workarounds? Both computers run under Windows XP, and Tight VNC version is 1.2.9. Thank you Alexandreskos Kostas |

Alex, Current VNC releases support only ISO-Latin-1 text clipboard transfer, although this is likely to change in future.

Are there any plans to fix the issue where copy-paste only seems to work with the most recently opened vncviewer window if you have multiple vncviewer windows running? It would be even better if it also worked between the vncviewer windows.

Brian, I'm not aware of any such problem, and you can already copy & paste text between viewer windows. You'll see the sort of behaviour you are describing if a process has broken the "clipboard chain", in which case no applications that joined the chain before that process won't receive clipboard notifications. The problem isn't specific to VNC but affects any application that needs to receive clipboard change notifications. Windows doesn't take any measures to repair or prevent breaks in the chain.

Hi Brian, The obvious thing to check would be whether both servers are configured to accept clipboard data. If so, then perhaps there's a clipboard-handling problem specific to the TightVNC viewer. It's certainly not an issue we've ever heard of with the standard VNC viewer.

Ok, it must just be something I'm doing that I can't figure out. I tested both of these servers independently and I can copy to each, but only to the most recently opened if I have both open. I've been using tightvnc for years through multiple versions with many clients and servers and have always had this problem so I just assummed it was a known issue. Sorry for the bother.
