Issue Summary
When copying and pasting an XML file with HTML special character entities in a code block macro, the names are converted into the character, instead of holding the entities.
If you manually type the file into the macro, the HTML entities are not converted.
Steps to Reproduce
- Copy an XML file with HTML entities to your clipboard.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <awesome XML> <awesomeness>>>> "this text has special char" & < <<< </awesomeness> </awesome XML>
- Create a blank page.
- Insert a code block macro and paste the content in it.
Expected Results
The macro pastes the content exactly how it's saved to the clipboard.
Actual Results
The macro automatically converts the HTML entities into the characters.
Workaround
Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
