copy paste feature - missing format value

7

After doing some trouble shooting in the new MX8.8 copy paste feature I’ve discovered that you can sniff out what is put in your clipboard.
unfortunitly it seems to be missing a format value
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/dataxchg/standard-clipboard-formats

why is this important?
without a format value, we cant paste it into a text editor or any other application that can make sense of it.

what could we do with it?
if we have control over what is being copy/pasted it would also be possible to host buildingblocks online, and then copy paste them from for example the Atlas resources page, straight into your modeler.

That would be nice. Then we could setup a design system app for specific customers and copy&paste specific buildingblocks from the design app to the current app. Especially in a rapid prototype session this would be perfect.

Show them the building block. copy&paste and configure.
