help with clipboard please

[robert black]

can anybody help
i'm trying to use the clipboard demo and have added a bit of code
to test it but i cannot get info onto the clipboard

The idea is that on clicking button2 the textbox2.text is copied to the clipboard
then clicking button1 should set textbox1.text to the contents of the clipboard
BUT no copying is happening have interogated clipboard via notepad proving the copy part of the programme is not working

many thanks

The clipboard methods (like of most methods in the Hardware library) are only functional on the device.
You can use agraham's clipboard library to access the desktop clipboard: http://www.b4x.com/forum/additional-libraries/2463-clippboard-access-library.html

OOPS.
Did you see agraham's note about this library:

EDIT :- It appears that this library will only operate correctly when in an optimised compiled app due to what seems to be a threading issue in the IDE and legacy compiled apps.
