We still have this open on our feature request list, so I've added your vote to it. We'll be sure to let you know if it's something we add in the future.

Thanks! ]]> RE: 5.8.4 copy excel cell like image problem https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/584-copy-excel-cell-like-image-problem/?ID=20e8167a-d278-4659-a13c-8b03b807062b#14 Wed, 04 May 2022 09:34:49 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/584-copy-excel-cell-like-image-problem/?ID=20e8167a-d278-4659-a13c-8b03b807062b#14 ClipboardFusion The problem persists in both Microsoft Excel and LibreOffice Calc.

How do I fix it? It's really annoying and I'm considering whether or not to buy the Clipboard Fusion premium license. ]]> RE: 5.8.4 copy excel cell like image problem https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/584-copy-excel-cell-like-image-problem/?ID=20e8167a-d278-4659-a13c-8b03b807062b#13 Wed, 29 Jul 2020 17:13:10 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/584-copy-excel-cell-like-image-problem/?ID=20e8167a-d278-4659-a13c-8b03b807062b#13 ClipboardFusion I've had a chat with our developers about this, and it looks like this is the expected behaviour, due to a fix for another issue that we fixed in 5.8. Microsoft Office apps actually put image data on the clipboard, we just weren't representing it that way in previous versions. For now, the best way to get just the plain text would be to use that Trigger rule. The image data is left in the history, as a new entry is created for the plain text that was scrubbed by the Trigger rule.

I'll put this feedback on our list as well, as maybe in the future we can add an option to force Microsoft Office apps to only put the plaintext in the history.

thank you for your efforts.
v5.8.5, Beta 1 - same outcome persists:
Trigger "Remove Non-Text Formats" is enabled. As a result I have 2 copies of excel cell: "image" like copy and text only copy.
Trigger "Remove Non-Text Formats" is disabled. As a result I have only an image like copy with additional info.

Thank you. ]]> RE: 5.8.4 copy excel cell like image problem https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/584-copy-excel-cell-like-image-problem/?ID=20e8167a-d278-4659-a13c-8b03b807062b#11 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 18:30:07 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/584-copy-excel-cell-like-image-problem/?ID=20e8167a-d278-4659-a13c-8b03b807062b#11 ClipboardFusion Can you give this newly released beta version a try and let me know if it helps your issue?

I attach a screenshot and the log file.
The cell with the value GB22DU16 was copied at 07:04:55. No trigger is set up for this version of Fusion.

Thank you for your assistance. I can do with 5.7, no problem but that may be an issue for others with the latest version.

"Enabled on Copy" was enabled.
You have a proof of it in my last attachment I sent you before.
They Trigger strips the copied excel cell of any non-text info but a drawback is that the program keeps in the history the non-stripped copy. ]]> RE: 5.8.4 copy excel cell like image problem https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/584-copy-excel-cell-like-image-problem/?ID=20e8167a-d278-4659-a13c-8b03b807062b#6 Tue, 21 Jul 2020 13:47:01 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.clipboardfusion.com/Discussions/View/584-copy-excel-cell-like-image-problem/?ID=20e8167a-d278-4659-a13c-8b03b807062b#6 ClipboardFusion Another thing you can try is to make sure the Trigger Command is set. Here's how to check:

  • Right-Click the ClipboardFusion Icon
  • Enable "Trigger Command Setting" > "Enabled on Copy"

If that's enabled, then your Triggers should work for you. If they still don't, would you be able to send us a debug log? Here's how you can get that to us:

  • On the ClipboardFusion Settings > Troubleshooting tab, change the Logging drop-down to "L1: Log Minimal" and click Apply
  • Reproduce the issue and note the time so we'll know where to check in the log file
  • Click the "Export Info to File" button on the Settings > Troubleshooting tab
  • Reply with the file attached
  • Disable debug logging after sending the log

The possible cause as I see it would be that the program treats the cell of the excel as an object and not as a text (exactly as an image).
If I enable the option "Show Clipboard changes made by ClipboardFusion" then the trigger "Remove Non-Text Formats" gets into the play and in this case the history produces 2 variants of the copied cell - as an object and as a stripped text (second attachment).
I do not think that the solution with the trigger is a right one. You let the program copy and reproduce additional unnecessary information only that afterwords to get rid of this with the trigger.

I have done exactly as requested but it does not trigger on copy.
Please check attached.

If I run version 5.7 I do not have this problem at all.

Is this only me who encounter this problem?

thank you,

5.8.4. shows in history not only cell value but adds additional unnecessary info, when copied from excel 2013.
How could I get only cell value, as previous versions behaved?
