Hi,
I am using the Linux version of Geany in Windows 11 Version 21H2 (OS Build 22000.675) with WSL2 (so I am NOT using a virtual machine). My problem is that I can't paste from the Windows clipboard to Geany (but I can copy/paste from Geany to everywhere). I don't think it's about WSL2 since I can paste to Gedit and GNOME from Windows with no problem.
My Geany and GTK++ version: geany 1.36 (built on 2020-03-22 with GTK 3.24.14, GLib 2.64.1)
And if you find this useful:
