Hello,

"the current (system wide) cursor position" is for example in word or in another a text chat or wherever the user currently sets focus pasteable text field.

"only active applications with window focus can access the clipboard" no this is the restriction from QClipboard to access the windows clipboard. My host program runs in the background in the tray and therefore does not have the window focus and cannot access the windows clipboard properly.

Best regards
