This error means that the IDE failed to access the clipboard. It usually happens when there is another app running that locks the clipboard (remote desktop or a "smart" clipboard manager).
I have the same problem. I have closed every other foreground app (including B4J and reopened it) but the problem persists. Is there workaround? Such as typing the code for the icon instead of pasting it.
When I type Chr(0xF0AB) into the the FontAwesome Icons box for my button (with font set to FontAwesome), I simply get a button with the text 'Chr(0xF0AB)' instead of the icon. I also tried using this script: btnConvert.Text = Chr(0xF0AB) That produced an error. What syntax do I need to use for this workaround?

Thank you. As I described in my previous post, I have the font set to FontAwesome and typed the icon code in the FontAwesome Icons property but icon is not showing.
Thank you. That solution is working for me. Yes, I will place my questions properly under B4J or B4A in the future. In this case I had the same problem in both B4J and B4A and the same solution works for both. I wish I could use the clipboard in the normal way with the icon picker. I am able to use clipboard just fine to copy/paste text in my code. It only gives the error when copying within the icon picker.
I discovered something new. Despite the fact that every time I try to copy from the icon picker, I get this error message, all I have to do is ignore it. I can close the error box and paste into the FontAwesome Icons property and it will paste in the icon I tried to copy.
