Hi there,
Our users are complaining that they can no longer copy & paste values from a FlexMonster report using "command + C" on their keyboard (on any browser).
This has only been an issue since we upgraded to the June 2020 instance (v. 2.8.9) [build 06/23/2020 04:33:55]. I believe we were previously on v. 2.8.4 prior to this upgrade, and this functionality was still available.
They keyboard shortcut ("command + C" on a Mac or "Ctrl + C" on a PC) has always been used because the right click menu doesn't contain a "Copy" option. Now, in order to copy any given field, the report first has to be exported to either Excel or CSV. This is obviously very time consuming and especially frustrating when they've previously had that much-faster option.
Was this functionality removed on purpose or for a specific reason? Is there any chance of getting it added back in the next release? This functionality was used by our teams constantly, and taking away this functionality has caused a lot of frustration.
Please advise! Many thanks,
Lee-ann
