Copy & Paste not working (WoW launched from battle.net)

Post by xlorepdarkhelm »

System:

Ubuntu 22.10
Wine version: lutris-fshack-7.2-x86_64 (but any other wine version I have tried has the same problems)
(I use lutris for Battle.net games)

Steps to take:
1. Launch Battle.net
2. From inside Battle.net, launch World of Warcraft

Expected:
Copy/paste functionality works.

Actual:

Cannot copy/paste from/into World of Warcraft.

Strange:

Can copy/paste from/into Battle.net without problems.

This affects not only World of Warcraft. but any game I launch from Battle.net.

I can run other EXEs directly into my prefix, and I can copy/paste fine (like notepad.exe)

If I run WoW directly rather than through Battle.net, it has the same problem (no copy/paste capable).
