    Office Clipboard: Work Content not supported (WIP)

    Hi Rick,

    The problem only occurs using the Office Clipboard (that is capable of remembering more copy actions), not the Windows Clipboard. And i have followed the WIP steps. And the issue is that i cannot find how to allow the Office Clipboard to allow Work content.
    As the default Windows clipboard does work.

    Regards,

    Mike

    BUG REPORT - When using @ (at sign) on Croatian keyboard, system pastes clipboard contents

    You found a place where the behavior is different, which is very interesting. Thanks for sharing! However at that place in the phone menu, the same behavior is shown by Hungarian for example. Or stated differently, there are two behaviors:

    Case 1 – mentioned here in this thread

    Steps to reproduce

    • put some text into the clipboard
    • All apps » Outlook Mail » New » To » enter the sign ‘@’
    Expected results

    Only the ‘@’ sign should be inserted.

    Actual results

    The ‘@’ is inserted and the clipboard content is appended.

    Case 2 – mentioned in that other thread

    Steps to reproduce

    • put some text into the clipboard
    • All apps » Messaging » New » Message » enter the sign ‘@’
    Expected results

    Only the ‘@’ sign should be inserted.

    Actual results

    The ‘@’ is not inserted but the clipboard content is appended.

    Regression

    So far, this is confirmed behavior for the Hungarian, Czech, Slovak, and Croatian keyboards.

    Notes

    Microsoft does not leverage Microsoft Answers for bug reporting. Why ever. Therefore here, such reports drown in the Internet swarm. Nevertheless, it is good to report such software bugs in a discussion board, because the bug can be edited, commented, and
    ‘closed’ when a workaround or solution is known. Anyway to report a problem, Microsoft wants you to use the app Windows Feedback, which is included since Windows 10 Mobile. To switch Windows Feedback to the English, please, go for All Apps » Settings » Time
    & language » Keyboard » add English (United States) and then switch the keyboard within the app Windows Feedback (at the bottom).
