Clipboard usage

[svesjo]

I wonder if this is a XnView bug?
When XnView is open, even if I don't use it, there are sometimes problems with the clipboard in Excel, and may be other applications.
I have used ClipboardOwnerDebug to debug this (http://leodavidson.blogspot.no/2011/06/ ... -1001.html).
When I copy a range of cells in Excel, and XnView is not running, the clipboard log shows the following activity:

( 13140 ms) Clipboard data last set by PID: 14128 Process: EXCEL.EXE Class: XLMSGONLY -- 0 formats

But if I start XnView, and copy some cells in Excel, the log show the following, even if I don't use XnView:

( 108125 ms) Clipboard data last set by PID: 14128 Process: EXCEL.EXE Class: CLIPBRDWNDCLASS -- Error opening the clipboard: 5

I also get an error message in Excel.

Hi
I have an almost similar problem.
When MP is running It is impossible to copy a complete sheet in Excel (all previous versions up to 0.87, I didn't try with the last), even if only these two programs work. The message invokes the lack of memory, although I have 8 GB. If MP is stopped, I can copy even though many other programs are running.
It doesn't bother me too much since I know it. and it doesn't prevent MP from being a super amazing program.
Sincerly
Gérard

Additional info:
I most often see this problem in two applications: Excel and Solidworks.
Sincerely,

Error with clipboard usage. Which is present for more than one year! more precisely, from the very beginning!
You can check it very simple:
Choose "save as", highlight the file name and copy it to the clipboard - you'll see what will happen!
...
But in Linux Mint.
Maybe in Windows it's different, I do not know ... write, tell ...

This hapen on Linux Mint 18.3.
(Maybe in Windows it's different, I do not know ...)

I am writing about the old problem again:
Make "Save As" -> copy the part of the file name to the clipboard (Ctrl + C).
The program hangs.
If something else is copied to the clipboard in another program or place, then the program hang are passes.
