Do you by chance use fx.clipboard in the App. If so, it may put stuff on the clipboard before you paste.

No, I didn't use fx.clipboard in the app. This is happening in between, in development phase without (and with) running app.

This error happens when the IDE fails to access the clipboard. It can be related to other software running such as remote desktop or all kinds of sophisticated clipboard managers.

Just for the record, indeed, the problem in my case was using B4X IDE in the same time when I had opened (and minimized) RDP session. Closing RDP session and no problems with copy/paste inside B4X IDE.
Funny is that copy/paste issue is not happening in using (for example) RDP minimized and working in VS Code.
