Problem
When copying text or content in XWayland applications (e.g. ONLYOFFICE DesktopEditors, GIMP, Inkscape, Wine) or certain Wayland clients, closing the source window immediately destroys the active Wayland selection offer. While Omarchy records the entry into history (
~/.local/state/omarchy/clipboard-history.json), the active system clipboard buffer becomes blank until the user manually triggersSuper + Ctrl + Vto re-select it.Fix
Add
wl-clip-persisttoinstall/omarchy-base.packagesand launchwl-clip-persist --clipboard regularas part of the default session autostart indefault/hypr/autostart.lua. This transparently preserves the regular clipboard selection across application closures without altering existing history capture behavior or keybindings.Verification
