I’ve noticed this weird issue after the recent upgrade to Gainsight NXT

 

I’m unable to paste any plain text from the clipboard to the rich-text fields in Gainsight NXT. 

It will allow me to paste any pre-formatted text but does not allow “Paste as plain text” or Paste any text copied from a notepad (i.e. plain-text format)

Also a Ctrl+Z does not work to Undo any activity within the rich-text box.

 

What changed? how can this be fixed?

@sai_ram - this might be a bug in the latest release.

It sure looks like it. I’ve logged a support ticket. Let’s see what they find.

@sai_ram  Just to summarize, there are four observations related to rich-text boxes here:

  1. Unable to paste (Ctrl+V) plain-text from clipboard to rich-text fields
  2. Unable to paste pre-formatted text from clipboard to rich-text field as plain text using “Paste as plain text” option (or Ctrl+Shift+V)
  3. Unable to undo using Ctrl+Z
  4. In case of multiple lines of text - When I place the cursor before the first character on line 2 and hit a backspace - it does not make the text on line 2 move to the end of line 1. Instead, it results in selection of the all the text on line 1.
