Multiple Instances of the 'Clipboard' Widget

This may be irrelevant, but I have noticed another error that I have not seen before.

I found that the audio player Clementine appeared a bit buggy since I installed 22.10 and after a bit of research I found that it was no longer supported. I therefore removed it and installed strawberry. This works fine, but I cannot make it remember which Activity I want it to start in; it always starts in whatever Activity I was in when I shut down the previous session.

Looking at the preferences file for plasma, I see that the modified time is six minutes ago (when I rebooted) and not four minutes ago (when I moved strawberry from my Games Activity to my Multimedia Activity.)

Is it possible that there is a permissions problem and the file only gets written during boot and not when things change subsequently?

If you move your cursor over them, do they clear down?

Andrew,

I'm not sure I understand the question. However, assuming that you are referring to the icons representing the icons representing the instances of Clipboard in the system tray; I have to 'Enter Edit Mode' and I am then able to Remove them one at a time. There is one other instance of Clipboard on the Desktop and I can only Remove that by clicking on the Trashcan icon when in Edit Mode.

Everything is then fine until I reboot, when the icons in the system tray and the instance on the Desktop all return.

It sounds like you're experiencing an issue with multiple instances of the 'Clipboard' widget appearing on your Kubuntu 22.10 desktop. This behavior, where multiple instances of the widget are running simultaneously, can indeed be quite frustrating.

It's possible that this could be a bug within the system or a misconfiguration. To troubleshoot, you might want to check your system settings and configurations related to widgets and system tray icons. Additionally, you could try restarting the system or removing and re-adding the widget to see if that resolves the issue.

If the problem persists, you might consider reporting it as a bug to the Kubuntu development team. They can investigate further and provide assistance in [url=https://enginetechpro.com/category/technologies/]resolving the issue.[/url]

I hope this helps, and that you're able to find a solution soon!

I has forgotten this report. At some time between now and my last posting, (2023-01-03), this problem went away. There have been two upgrades since then so it could have been either.
