AutoRemote Copying text from phone to computer, showing only "%CLIP"?

Hi,

I have been trying to do the "Copying some text from your phone to the Windows clipboard" thing with the method provided by http://joaoapps.com/autoremote/eventghost/tips-and-tricks/ but came to no avail.
I have sent the message "copy=:=%CLIP" to my computer but instead of copying the text in my phone's clipboard, only the characters "%CLIP" are in my computer's clipboard.

The following is the log of AR after the AR message was sent:
version 3.0.43

OS Build LRX21V.WW-ASUS_Z00A-2.20.40.165_20160118_6541_user
OS Code 21
Device ASUS_Z00AD
Manufacturer asus
Product WW_Z00A

Out - 2016-03-01 23:35:55.339 - Text: "copy=:=%CLIP" sent successfully to EventGhost through Wifi

The following is the log of EG after the AR message was sent:
---> Welcome to EventGhost <---
Got communication of type: Message
Can't download received files. You have to choose a folder in the AutoRemote plugin settings first.

This is a redirected message.
eg.event.payload.armessage: u'copy=:=%CLIP'

eg.event.payload.arcomm: u'%CLIP'

Copy to Clipboard
eg.WinApi.Clipboard.SetClipboardText(eg.event.payload.arcomm)
Show OSD: Copied to clipboard: "{eg.event.payload.arcomm}"

Things I think are worth noticing:

1. I have tried a few other tasks that involves both AR and EG (e.g. Turning off computer/launching programs with AR) and I had no problem
2. I have tried restarting both of my devices
3. I have tried to copy from different sources like Chrome, Telegram, Quick Memo app (not sure if it matters, just in case)
4. I have tried using %Clip and %clip
5. My phone's rooted and is running Android 5.0 Lollipop

Thanks a lot for your help! It is much appreciated! : )

 

I am also having the same problem. When I use "Flash" action in Tasker, the %CLIP correctly shows the contents of the clipboard, but in Send message, my PC clipboard just receives "%CLIP"..

EDIT: Just found something interesting; when I have used your tutorial to send copied text from PC to phone, then send it back to PC with Tasker-Send, it does send the clipboard correctly, but only if I change the "Message to Send" to %CLIP instead of copy=:=%CLIP.
But if I then long-press copy something on my phone, it just sends "%CLIP".

 

haha ok final EDIT: So it seems to be a bug. I had only gotten as far using the "You can send a message to test it!" button in the configuration. But when I went back to the Task Edit screen and pushed the Play button on the task, it works fine.

 

u just need to make a local variable and then try , it will work for sure, this is not a bug brother
