Hello,
I haven't posted here before but have been enjoying BTT for many years now.

I use the clipboard frequently and being able to paste multiple items all at once is a really great feature. It works fine in every app I have tried expect for google docs, the one I use the most. This has become very frustrating where I have to paste all the items into a textedit doc and then recopy and then paste that single large block into google docs. The bug is that when pasting into google docs it will paste some of what I selected but randomly about half of the items are just blank and then the cursor moves down to the next line as if it is trying to paste everything but fails around half the time.

Thanks,
Remy

Weird, is it some special document? I just tried with a empty google doc but was able to paste multiple items fine

Hello Andreas,

Thank you for your response, yes it is quite weird, this is a new issue for me as I do this regularly.

I did some more exploring and took screen shots to better display the problem. Below are screenshots from what I did. I copied 7 individual items numbered and in order which can be seen in my BTT clipboard. I selected them all and pasted in textedit where they were all pasted one after another on new lines. You can then see 6 screenshots, 3 each from a test using google docs in chrome and 3 from safari. I did 3 of each because you can see the variability of the problem I am experiencing, pasting the same items, all of them selected in the clipboard, every time it gives me a different result and skips random ones, it's really strange and quite frustrating because there's no pattern to how it's not working so my only choice is to paste into textedit and then copy them all to the google doc as I mentioned above.

(it's only letting me post 3 images so the rest of the screenshots are below in followup posts).

Please let me know if you have any other questions or if there is additional data I can gather to help get this worked out.

Thanks for your willingness to help and making such a great time saving product!

Cheers,
Remy
