Now, it's happening even in the same worksheet. See screenshot below demonstrating what it's doing. The preliminary calc file is also attached this time, since it's happening in the same file, which there was no point attaching earlier since it was happening intermittently between files. Bar Grating Calc.sm (267kb) downloaded 8 time(s).

THIS IS A BUG/ISSUE DISCUSSION, please STAY ON TOPIC

post/replies by other users should be limited to:

• I cannot reproduce in my setup/environment...
  
• I've experienced it in my setup/environment (occasionally, often, in a reproducible way....)
  
• other: suggestions on how to reproduce or fix it, requests for clarifications...

setup/environment (program version and localization settings, OS and localization settings, ...): might affect or not the issue, knowing them in the first case might help, in the latter doesn't hurts.

As usual, Jean, I have no idea what your response even means or how it relates to this thread....
Has anyone else seen the behavior I reported with the math and text regions copying as regions sometimes and sometimes as images? Does anyone else have a workaround for getting it to consistently copy and paste as regions?

Thanks,
Jason

Jason,
Have you checked if you have programs in operation that interfere with the Windows clipboard? I had interference of this type with other programs (not with smath). In the positive case, try deactivating them

Hi. Yes, it is a new feature. Disabling it prevents clipboard content from being pasted into a text region like math. I have it disabled, but I think the default option is to have it enabled.

I have no idea if those options could be the cause of your problem, but hey, in the end they are options about the behavior of the clipboard in SMath.

Here is a recent example of a math area within a text:

and here's an example of a file in which I tried to include math regions embeded in text regions, but other users couldn't open it:

Best regards.

This is definetly something that could cause the issue. SMath sends to the clipboard several data formats and if an external application has to manage the clipboard to transfer data from a client to another, some kind of common data format might be prioritized while the custom ones might be even completely excluded (just as principle, but I have experienced clipboard issues in remote working on other programs too).


Jean, you are once again off-topic, it was clearly described by Jason as a copy-paste issue where a image is returned when a math region is expected, no one has mentioned screenshots.

Also, as basic netiquette you don't need to highlight words in other people threads, unless you are a moderator or you have something very important to show in a very crowded thread, just like you won't yell randomly some words speaking with other people in a room.
