can't use primary selection in built-in PDF viewer [zotero6]

Under the X Window System, primary selection could copy text quickly besides clipboard. But the new built-in PDF viewer does not support primary selection on Linux. Would zotero support it in the future?

The primary selection:

  • Same here. In great need of this feature.
  • Could you check if this issue still persists in the Zotero 7 beta?
  • This doesn't work for me with version 7.0.0-beta.51+7c5600913.
  • +1 for making the Linux primary selection work all over Zotero, not only in PDFs. Especially copying from Zotero should work (pasting can be tricked using additional other programs)
  • I can confirm this problem still exists with Zotero 7.0.11 under KDE Plasma 6.2.4 and Wayland.

    Indeed, it's not a critical issue, but sometimes it can be very annoying.
