# Android clipboard text
|
|
|
|
Copy text in an Android app, return to DroidDeck, and paste into Steam with Ctrl+V.
|
|
The session's PC keyboard supports this through its sticky Ctrl key and V.
|
|
|
|
Android clipboard reads follow window focus, including the secondary-display presentation.
|
|
The existing Wayland text selection handles native guest clients. Gamescope does not relay
|
|
that selection to its inner Xwayland, so a session helper publishes Android text there.
|
|
It waits for file and X11 events, and exits when its parent session exits.
|
|
|
|
The Gamescope bridge currently supports Android-to-guest plain text up to 64 KiB.
|
|
It does not transfer images/files or export Steam's copied text back to Android.
|
|
Oversized text clears an earlier Android selection rather than pasting a truncated command.
|
|
Clipboard text stays in private app data and is never included in session logs.

## Thor validation, 2026-10-02
|
|
|
|
AYN Thor, serial `d234a848`, Android 13, release APK installed in place.
|
|
Built with `tools/build_local.sh`; shell syntax, workflow YAML, and diff checks passed.
|
|
Installed APK SHA-256 matched the local artifact:
|
|
`624782af4319af538a9ae5dba6e012ebb51c7fd43a3955c4f568d214f9c32c07`.
|
|
|
|
- The supplied launch-options string pasted through Ctrl+V into Steam's actual Launch Options field exactly. The field was restored to its original empty value.
|
|
- Unicode (`café 日本語 😀`, quotes, dollar sign, and backslash) also pasted exactly into Steam. The field was restored again.
|
|
- Final-build X11 selection checks passed for launch options, multiline text, Unicode, 8 KiB, clearing, and replacing the clipboard across Android app switches.
|
|
- Copying on Thor's second display transferred the text while Steam remained visible on the first display.
|
|
- Copying the same Android text after a guest owned the X11 selection restored the Android selection.
|
|
- A 65,537-byte clipboard was rejected without truncation; a subsequent normal clipboard transferred correctly.
|
|
- The helper exited during APK replacement. The temporary Android test app, guest probe, and local ADB forward were removed.

## Visible editor-to-Steam test
|
|
|
|
Typed the supplied launch command into a temporary native Android EditText editor
|
|
using Android keyboard events, selected all, and copied with Android's standard
|
|
Ctrl+C action. Returned to the running DroidDeck Steam session and pasted into
|
|
The Sims Legacy Collection's Launch Options. Steam's persisted value matched the
|
|
complete 126-byte command exactly. No clipboard-setting API was used by the editor.
|
|
|
|
Repeated with `DroidDeck Thor clipboard test 2026-10-02`, using Steam's on-screen
|
|
keyboard Paste button. The whole value is visible in these unedited Thor screenshots:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The launch options were restored to their original empty value and verified in
|
|
Steam's configuration. The temporary editor and ADB forward were removed.
