If you switch to another virtual desktop after copied an image, in some unknown circumstances, you will never be able to paste it again. Other data types (texts/files) are not affected.
This bug happened since I upgraded the system today (2025-03-19). I’m using the stable branch
detailed information:
Operating System: Manjaro Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.11.0
Qt Version: 6.8.2
Kernel Version: 6.12.19-1-MANJARO (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland
Processors: 16 × 13th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-1360P
Memory: 31.0 GiB of RAM
Graphics Processor: Intel® Iris® Xe Graphics

Hi @happyZYM, and welcome!
Just attempted this now:
- Copied screenshot I took with ksnip;
- switched to another virtual desktop, opened GIMP and created a new image;
- Pasted the copied image from the Previous virtual desktop no problems.
So I could not reproduce.
Thanks! I’m not quite sure about how to perfectly reproduce the bug, but this is my findings:
- take a screenshot with Spectacle from Kate: rarely reproduce
- take a screenshot with Spectacle from thunderbird(flatpak): often reproduce
I wonder if it doesn’t have something to do with flatpak…
The problem is that the samples are too few. In fact when I take screen shots from a Chromium based PWA app, it also reproduced many times.
I’ll try to provide more accurate feedback after some further observation.
Not as detailed as you might think.
The information from *-fetch type programs might be fine for someone wishing to buy your computer, but for Support purposes it’s best to ask your system directly, to produce more useful information.

That’s not the only oddness with the clipboard. I’ve noticed similarly strange behavior even with copied text, and on the same desktop — within the same application, even.
It’s probably just a bug — they’ve sorted out some earlier bugs with the clipboard, but apparently they’ve introduced a couple of new ones in the process.
