1.3.2.2.1 Copy Sequence

The goal of the Copy Sequence is to synchronize the list of available formats across the client and the server clipboards.

The Format List PDU is sent by the Remote Desktop Protocol: Clipboard Virtual Channel Extension virtual channel endpoint on which the local clipboard has been updated. This endpoint is called the "Shared Clipboard Owner." The Format List PDU contains a list of the updated formats that are available on the clipboard of the Shared Owner. The recipient of the Format List PDU has to update its local system clipboard with IDs of the Clipboard Formats that are available on the Shared Owner, and then send the Format List Response PDU in response. The sender of the Format List Response PDU is called the "Local Clipboard Owner." The format data is delay rendered, as specified in section 1.3.1.4.
