When I copy text the data is pulled into Klipper. Klipper does not activate that selection. I always have to pop open the Klipper menu and manually select that recent selection copy.
I have tried keeping the two different buffers in sync and not.
When I manually select the most recent selection from the popup menu, Klipper pastes the selection as expected. The next time I copy a different selection Klipper again "forgets" which selection is most recent.
My usage of any clipboard manager is the most recent selection is always remembered and activated as selected for pasting. Klipper is not doing this.
I do not remember Klipper behaving this way in the past. I do not see anything awry in klipperrc. Has something changed with Klipper behavior?
Thanks.

Nope, nothing changed and Klipper works fine here. Cheers Michele

Does your install of Klipper keep the top most (most recent) selection active (checked)? Mine doesn't, which means I always have to pop up the history menu and manually (keyboard down arrow) to select.
I expect to manually select other entries in the history, but the most recent should always be active.

I work in practically the exact opposite manner from yourself; I tend to collect a whole pile of URLs, then want to act on them later, so I don't want klipper automatically to pop up with an "open with" list of web browsers. For me, that's very annoying. But what we all want is just for our machines to obey and serve us.
So I gave it a try, just for the sake of experiment, and to add to the list. I right-clicked on the klipper icon, then alt-ctrl-X, then tried to click on a link in the TDE mailing list email; and sure enough, I get the klipper "open with" dialog. So it works for me.
Then I undid these changes, alt-ctrl-X again to reverse, tried again, and I am back to my usual. Myself, I prefer to use alt-ctrl-V, find my choice in the list, then open a browser page manually. Maybe I am not in a hurry. Maybe I am just a cranky old guy, but I like to do some things in a deliberate manner.
Just to be sure, I repeated the experiment a few more times, enabling actions, then disabling them, by alt-ctrl-X, and everything works fine.
It occurs to me that maybe you have some overlapping shortcuts in your system; that is, another program or whatever is using that shortcut for something, maybe a global shortcut. You might want to look in the Trinity Control Center for any shortcuts that happen to use alt-ctrl-X (or ctrl-alt-X). TCC > Regional & Accessibility > Keyboard Shortcuts.
Hang in there. Nice thing about TDE: once you finallly track down the source of a problem, it's easy enough to resolve, and *stays* resolved. Compared to any other desktop out there, a user can actually get the machine to be an obedient servant. Sometimes, though, it does take some time and work to get that to happen.

That, in PrusaSlicer, is part of PrusaSlicer, if your printer is on your local network, there is an upload and print option that Just Works. Most "slicers" have some sort of similar functions.

Glad to hear from you (after the wokies banned me from Debian for demanding to not discuss politics)
I hope you are still in good shape (for your age)
I wondered why you disappeared. And wonder why they don't ban me if they bother to read my .sig. I'm a lifer with GOA.
The (the medics) finally decided to put me on lantus for my diabetes, and most of the bruises from bumping into this and that have faded. Shoulda done it 30 years ago. My sense of balance is getting poorer at 90 yo. Stay well guy.

Right-click on the Klipper icon and select Configure Klipper. Clipboard/Selection Behavior might need to be changed to get the behaviour you want.
