Copy/Paste from Workspace into Excel or Browser

Is anyone else having problems copying data from workspace tables and pasting it into a program like excel? Sometimes it will work, but the majority of the time it doesn't. This is a problem that myself and multiple others at our company are continually running into. Sometimes I will try to copy for a couple minutes, and then suddenly it will start to work. Then I leave my computer for 5 minutes and come back again and it wont work again.

Any help would be VERY appreciated.

This has been a fickle bug to pin down and iron out. As a workaround, the next release will be including a right click 'Copy' so you don't have to agonize whether it actually copied to your clipboard or not.

So I have some unfortunate news - the "right click to copy" had some snags with the fix, and has been pushed back to March's maintenance release. I'm just a bit miffed, but we'll get it soon enough.

As a workaround, I've been using a clipboard history viewer to get feedback on whether my copy actually succeeded or not. The specific one I use is part of the 8GadgetPack​ called clipboarder. There are several others out there as standalone programs that do the job equally nicely.


Did this ever release?  I'm experiencing the issue today....
