Hello, I have a small issue with Virt-Manager. I have installed a ParrotOS VM. I can copy and paste between the host and the guest, but I can't highlight text in the terminal on the VM. When I try, it highlights text only while I hold the left mouse button, and I can't copy the text. I'm not sure where the issue is.

Hi, I tested it on an ubuntu vm and i got the same bug as you. I don't why this is happening though... From what I saw other people have experienced a similar issue with virt-manager so I don't think it is related to the config.
I don't really have the time to look into it more now sorry.
If you found out how to fix it I would be interested to know how.

Thank you for the response. I will definitely let you know if I find anything, although I am slowly running out of places to look, as I haven't found a solution to this problem. However, I am convinced that the issue lies with the Virt-Manager package on NixOS. I tried using VirtualBox instead, but there is a compatibility issue between Wayland and X11 on the host and guest, which prevents me from dragging and dropping files between them.
