WebGL Copy - Paste for Input Field not working

Hello @Schubkraft, could you update us if this is a feature Unity is working on or if it has been put on hold?

 

In hopes we will live!
21 LTS didn't make it I guess..

 

@kou-yeung I am using the new UI Toolkit, is there any way to use your solution for the TextField https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/UIElements.TextField.html? I'm working on Unity 2022.1.19 and copy-paste is also not working for that in WebGL.

 

2023 here, it must be an epic issues

 

21 years and still not solve. This topic is legendary

oh sssshhh 2022 LTS

 

Just came across this bug. No paste possible into an inputfield in WebGL.

What. The. F***. Unity.

 

It is not so much a Unity issue though. Because on the web you should (rather would typically...) render graphics to a canvas and all the UI should be standard web UI around or over the canvas. If you do all the UI in Unity then you have a self-contained object that does not conform to typical web functionality.
Unity could certainly help by trying to provide an out of the box solution for a common problem like this though.

 

I just used this repo, and it works: https://github.com/kou-yeung/WebGLInput

 

What you should and should not do is up to app design.

The more I work with Unity WebGL the more you could say one shouldn't work with Unity WebGL at all.
