Re: Clipboard pastes into single spreadsheet cell

I just checked this in LC 7.1.1, running in High Sierra. It works as expected; the tabs survive into the spreadsheet. -- Paul On Thu, Oct 19, 2017 at 6:18 AM, Paul Foraker wrote: > G.W., glad to hear it works OK on a PC. My end user will be using one. > Thanks, > --

Re: Clipboard pastes into single spreadsheet cell

What I discovered when I was fiddling around with this was that when I copy text from a text editor (ST, atom, BBE, TW), and check the fullClipboardData in LC, the only key is "text". The rtf, html, etc. are all missing (put the keys of the fullClipboardData). When I put something into the

Re: Clipboard pastes into single spreadsheet cell

That has been my suspicion all along since this began. Still, I think it is incumbent upon the other software developers to properly interpret the clipboard and respond accordingly. That of course, is a pipe dream, so I suppose it's now up to us the end developers to do the conversion. Is there
