[Bug 1317813] [NEW] Clipboard issues, old data isnt cleared

 

Public bug reported:

Hi.

I ran across an issue (it occurs in about 1 out of 30 trials) where old
data gets passed from the clipboard to the paste function.

Code:
        tripleClick(Pattern("1392988992662.png").targetOffset(70,2))
        type("c", KEY_CTRL)
        adress = Env.getClipboard().encode('iso-8859-15').strip()

and paste part... about 350 SLOC later:
        paste(u"V\xC4GD 1")

For some reason it picks a random object from the clipboard (and
sometimes its not even the last copied item either...)

And why am I doin it this way? Well, its because special characters
(like ÅÄÖ) arent very popular and cant be written using the type()
function. But paste(u"") works.

Is this a problem in SikuliX or the Clipboard or somewhere else?

Machine = Win7 Pro SP1
