Copy paste not working

Hi

 

I am trying to modify some queries in advanced editor in PQ but it's impossible to copy /cut and paste.

Instead I am getting this ms-pq://pq.microsoft.com/views/editor/viewformula.htm

 

Can some one assist please.

Did you ever find a solution for this? I'm struggling to find a fix anywhere

This has driven me insane on many occasions. Here it is in action: https://app.screencast.com/Gyl1VLkXMS7jE

I do have the same issue. Let me explain:

 

Since about a month ago, I am not able to copy-paste code anymore from the advanced editor. If I select code and use ctrl + c and try to paste the code somewhere, it does not paste the code. Ctrl + c just does not put the code onto the clipboard. 

 

What does work, however, is using right-click and select "copy" from there. Then the code does end up on the clipboard and I can paste it as expected.

 

Very annoying, since I am an avid user of keyboard shortcuts. Did anyone find a solution?

Hi @adelm ,

 

Could you show me more details? For example, some error screenshoots.

Please refer to this post:

when you say you are getting this error... at what point do you get this error and can you screenshot how it it happening?   





If I took the time to answer your question and I came up with a solution, please mark my post as a solution and /or give kudos freely for the effort 🙂 Thank you!
