Copy/paste buffer not working after some time.
One of our users reported that copy/paste buffer is not working after some time. Is there a way to check whether the clipboard is purging older copy/paste related items. Is there any open issue related to this? Are there any settings to increase clipboard size? [I know of Settings -> clipboard (max number entries to keep in buffer)].
We are using Linux, OpenJDK, IntelliJ 10.5.
Let me know if you need any other information.

Hello,
* you can check current buffer content via 'Paste from History' action (mapped to the 'Ctrl+Shift+V' by default);
* number of clipboard buffer entries is managed by the setting you mentioned;
* are there any steps to reproduce the problem?
* can you try that under jre 1.6?

Please try IDEA 10.5.2 with "-Didea.use.alt.clipboard.sync=true" (details).
I am facing same issue.
Using windows 7, IntelliJ 2016.3.3
Idea 2016.3.3 windows 10
It sometime doesn't work copy/paste/cut for text more than 75 chars. in same time it works for text less than 75 chars.
for example:
This text copy/paste/cut works.
"final ActorRef actor = actorService.getActorSystem().actorOf((Props) event"
but this one can't copy
"final ActorRef actor = actorService.getActorSystem().actorOf((Props) eventLogic.cast(), name);"
Same happens for me:
IntelliJ IDEA 2018.1 (Ultimate Edition)

On single files at some point it starts to not recognize copy and paste actions anymore. But only from a certain length on.
The same issue here:

Running as admin - doesn't make any difference, clipboard still doesn't work.
