Is there a way to setup a 2 way clipboard so copy / paste can happen either way?

The VNC protocol when connecting Mac to Mac does have automatic 2 way sync, however we've opted to disable it because it's unstable - it can accidentally end up sending a lot of data if you copy it on the remote machine. At this time for VNC Mac to Mac connections: You have to manually request the remote machine's clipboard - however your machine's clipboard will automatically be sent.

Thanks - you said : You have to manually request the remote machine's clipboard - however your machine's clipboard will automatically be sent.

Q: How do we manually request the remote machine's clipboard ?

Hi,

Click: Remote -> Get Pasteboard.

Also, Fluid has automatic clipboard syncing.

Is this why the rendering thread freezes when a drag action on the remote causes MacOS to send pasteboard contents involuntarily to the viewer?
