Checklist

  • I have searched the issue tracker for open issues that relate to the same feature, before opening a new one.
  • This issue only relates to a single feature. I will open new issues for any other features.

Is your feature request related to a problem?

The clipboard in GLFW was previously tied to the window. This is no longer the case so I think it seems strange to have a window.Clipboard() method when clipboards generally are per app or per system and not per window.

See #4417 for step one.

Is it possible to construct a solution with the existing API?

Yeah. We can move the clipboard struct anywhere we'd like.

Describe the solution you'd like to see.

Add a app.Clipboard() method and deprecate the one on the window.

This will make some system tray people happy as well, because we can then use clipboard without having any windows created.

What is the status of this issue? I had a quick glance and it seems that what is left is:

  • add the Clipboard() method to fyne.App
  • expose the clipboard struct from internal/glfw and internal/mobile
  • add the Clipboard() method to fyne.driver to expsoe that struct?
  • implement the Clipboard method on app/fyneApp
  • deprecate fyne.Window.Clipboard (as of 2.6?)

This seems too simple to be true :)

That sounds about right except I don't think there is any need to expose new structs to do this...

NB. getting a lot of errors when running go test ./..., unrelated
to this change. Will investigate some of them as they relate to the
locale, others I have no idea.
