Improve Copy selected text data from Column with a formula

Suggestion Box
1

Hi,

Problems are:

  1. I cannot copy the information from the column with a formula in a Table view.
  2. When I expand a Row and select part of the text in a column with a formula I copy all the information, not a selected text.

Hi Nikita

The result of a formula is of a different data type than what text data type is. See if it help to add the formula totext() at the end of an existing formula.

Hi,

  1. Formula = AnotherColumn

  2. Formula = AnotherColumn.BulletedList()

  3. Formula = AnotherColumn.ToText()

When I select text in a column with a formula and press Ctrl + C then in the following goes to the clipboard:
1. FireSettings
2. WolfSettings
3. FruitsAmount
4. FruitsSettings
5. BarSettings
6. TileSpin

But as you can see I select only a FireSettings text.

Ran up against this today. Detail view of a row, with a bunch of text in a cell piped in from elsewhere. I know I can’t edit it - but at least let me select some text within it so can copy it please :slight_smile:
