(Copy and) paste not working in Pythonista

Niklas

Hello!

Lately I have had trouble pasting text in Pythonista. Sometimes it works, but often it doesn’t. There is no difference if I copy from inside Pythonista or if it’s from another app. The copying seems to always work, but pasting doesn’t. If I use Cmd + V on an external keyboard, nothing happens, and if I tap to get the context menu, there’s no “paste” option.

Is this something you have experienced? Is there a solution?

I use the latest iPadOS version (13.6.1 I think) on an old iPad Pro 10.5.

Best regards, Niklas

@Niklas, I have not experienced this on my iPhone with latest iOS. I do not use an external kb, if that matters.

I'm not sure if the external keyboard matters. It's the same if I switch the keyboard off and use the native copy/cut and paste. Strange. If I'm the only one experiencing this it's probably a local thing on my iPad. Thanks anyway! 🙂

No issues here with the magic kb
