Copy/Paste sometimes fails from Visual Studio to Mac

[Michael Roufa 0]

Synergy 1.7.2 installed on OS X Yosemite client / Windows 8.1 server Having a weird issue where I cannot copy code from Visual Studio on Windows and paste it anywhere on the Mac. As a workaround, I first pasted the code into Notepad++ (on Windows) and then re-copied it to the clipboard. Looking deeper, it looks like a simple Ctrl-C from Visual Studio also pulls in text color, text background color, and font information. I CAN paste into programs that understand that formatting information. For example, the built-in Notes app on OS X allows me to paste, and the pasted text has the same colors as what I selected. But if I attempt to paste into an app that doesn't recognize the color info like MS Outlook or TextWrangler then nothing happens. Thoughts?

I see that there still hasn't been a reply to your post. This (formatted text does not paste) is among the issues being worked on for 1.7.4, as far as I know. https://github.com/synergy/synergy/issues/2909
