Autotype into gnome Terminal or LibreOffice doesn't work either. It still works with Chrome though. Copy and paste is also broken between KeepassXC and any application except Chrome. Because Chrome is not a native Wayland app. As a workaround, you can install firefox-x11 package and run "Firefox on X11" instead of Firefox. Then everything will work. But for me Copy & Paste (almost) works. Anyway, the problem is not the apps themselves; it is related to Wayland. For example, KeePassX only sees open X11 windows and not wayland ones. In fact, I doubt it is possible at all to see the list of Wayland apps. Also, it might not be possible to send keyboard events to another Wayland app. I've created this bug to track the problem; which is not even limited to KeePassX; but probably one of rare apps for whom this feature is important.

You can provide feedback for this update here: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-2dad0f65e5 This bug is not fixed in latest updates. There is a (hacky) PR for it but it is not merged yet. I thought you might have included it but apparently not. So, there is no AutoType feature under Wayland currently. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1761153 I reported 1761153 as a bug for keepass in combination with both F31 and F32 (Rawhide) myself not highly technical but it looks like the same issue as 1759158 agree that copy and paste works, but autotype would be much more practical under F30 everything worked fine I confirm that this is an issue with Firefox only. it works fine with Chromium and Chrome FEDORA-2019-3195095ccd has been submitted as an update to Fedora 30. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-3195095ccd keepassxc-2.5.1-1.fc30 has been pushed to the Fedora 30 testing repository.

If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. The update doesn't seem to fix this bug. Is it really supposed to? keepassxc-2.5.1-1.fc30 has been pushed to the Fedora 30 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. 2.5.1 is actually worse compared to 2.4.x:in 2.4.x autotype would still work with X based apps, like Chrome. in 2.5.1, the autotype action (shift-ctrl-V) has completely vanished without explanation to the user. Apparently this was delibirate, see https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/pull/3520 I've created upstream issue https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/issues/3868 for this updated related bug for keepass https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1761153 the issue is still there in F32 (beta) This bug results in not only autotype not working, but also the clipboard not being cleared after "x" sec (Fedora 31, Wayland) so presents a security concern as well as an inconvenience. updated related bug for keepass https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1761153 fixed upstream |
