Try using clipbrd.exe in Windows to identify the discrepancy of what is actually appearing on the clipboard.

the clipboard is okay, i can paste in any application in linux but not in pbide.
i can paste in mousepad or gwrite and copy from there, but not direct to
pbide.

Perhaps its a virtualbox issue?
Doing the same in VmWare works fine

Have you installed VirtualBox Guest Additions?

Yes
Clipboard works with all application expect pbide, so this is a ide issue and
not virtualbox.

I just tried the same and yes, only the PB IDE does not support clipboard. VirtualBox + Debian here.

I just checked, and I have the same problem. The clipboard doesn't work with the PB ide. With all other applications it works as expected.

Can you tell us what the discrepancy is on the clipboard?

Don't understand the question. On Windows Host is a Text in Clipboard.
On Linux Guest is the same in Clipboard and available for all applications, but
only the PB Ide ignors the Clipboardtext. In all other Applications i can
paste the text, comes from Windows Host

random idea here: does pasting work into a scintillagadget? (inside virtualbox naturally)
if not, it would appear to be a scintilla issue

Sorry, I mixed up the direction of your copy/paste operation. If it's not working on the Linux VM you'll have to look for the discrepancy there. I don't know what tool to use for that.

If you can copy and paste from other programs, I think it's a problem with VirtualBox's guest tools.

I can
copy and paste from and to all programs! Host or Guest., but not to PB IDE!
If this a problem with guest tools, why works with
all other applications?
On Linux shows the text, but the IDE paste nothing!
