XMLWordPrintable

      When copying and pasting content inside tables, in Confluence, it behaves different depending on how you insert the text. Here's the steps to reproduce and better understand:

      With Shift+Enter together:

      1. Edit a page and create a table
      2. Enter text separated by lines (using SHIFT+Enter)
      3. Copy the text and Paste in other table:

      With Only Enter

      1. Edit a page and create a table
      2. Enter the text separated by lines (only using ENTER)
      3. Copy the text and paste in other table

      Screenshot attached for further reference.

            Hi Giuliano,

            I'm afraid there's a misunderstanding here as to what the problem is.

            • No space between lines when using SHIFT+Enter >> NORMAL behavior, the keyboard creates a 'newline' character
            • Space between lines when using only ENTER >> NORMAL behavior, the keyboard creates a new end-of-paragraph character with each ENTER
            • Space added between lines after copy-pasting with keyboard shorcuts >> FAULTY behavior, 'newline' chars are wrongly converted into 'new paragraph' chars

            So the issue is only about copy-pasting 'newline' (SHIFT+Enter) chars. Copy-pasting normal paragraph chars (ENTER) is causing no problem at all.

            By the way, the behavior specifically happens when using keyboard shortcuts such CTRL+C, CTRL+V or CTRL+INS, SHIFT+INS.

            Workaround: using the contextual (right-click) menu instead of keyboard shorcuts.

            Thanks,
            Normand
