I'm using version 2.3 of the view client for Windows at the moment and my question is, if the contents of the host machine's clipboard can transfer over to any guest machine's clipboard, why not vice versa? It wouldn't need to be instantaneous. A button under Options in the client menu (maybe call it, "Export Clipboard -- Ctrl + Shift + C") would be enough. This would save me from having to make a network share or use SCP to transfer files between the two operating systems and would be a point and click means of moving files between the two machines. At the moment, the host clipboard to guest clipboard feature allows for one way file transfers, but I need to be able to move files back to the host machine. If this feature already exists sorry for wasting your time, but if it doesn't... I know I can't be the only one who could use this.
Thoughts? Suggestions? Rants?
Edit: After reading a bit more about VMware tools I see that you can drag and drop files from the guest OS to the host, however there is no mention made of clipboard contents alone (not full files), so I'm leaving my post up.
