Classic confinement request for floatboard

name: floatboard description: A productivity-focused, always-on-top floating clipboard manager built with Electron. snapcraft: GitHub - nazihyazan/floating_board · GitHub upstream: GitHub - nazihyazan/floating_board · GitHub upstream-relation: I am the core developer and publisher of the project. supported-category: Desktop applications requiring global clipboard and window management access. reasoning: FloatBoard requires the ability to globally monitor and hook into system clipboard events (text and images) across all running applications. Additionally, it needs to display a transparent, always-on-top floating window overlay that users can interact with seamlessly without losing focus on their current tasks. Under strict confinement, the security sandbox prevents the app from reliably accessing the global clipboard and managing its window bounds and focus, particularly under Wayland constraints. Existing interfaces do not provide sufficient permissions for this level of global desktop integration.

I understand that strict confinement is generally preferred over classic. I’ve tried the existing interfaces to make the snap to work under strict confinement.

This request has been added to the queue for review by the @reviewers team.

This is definitely not on the list of supported categories for classic confinement…

The list of supported categories can be found here:

Fitting into one of these is a hard requirement to even be considered for classic…

To get access to the clipboard there are various interfaces (X11, wayland, desktop, desktop-legacy, unity7) that will provide this access and should also allow a floating window…

Thank you for the clarification! You are right.I appreciate your help!
