PCoIP and Clipboard Limitations

Hi,

Can anyone explain how the clipboard sharing works in PCoIP? We have noticed that images copied onto a clipboard (local or remote side) don't show up on the other end's clipboard. Text seems to replicate between the two without issue. The rdp sessions don't have this limitation and I'm wondering what is the limiting factor (size, format?) and is it configurable?

Thanks,

Scott

This appears to be the answer, from the View Admin guide, under system requirements for pcoip.

 You can copy and paste text between the local system and the desktop, but you

cannot copy and paste system objects such as folders and files between systems.

Note to self: thoroughly read the documentation!

Please notice as there isn't a way to copy/paste files between your desktop and the VDI, the work around is to use the USB drive connect to copy files.
