Tilt: Copy + paste from LogPane in to rich text fields doesn't work

Created on 8 Nov 2019  路  3Comments  路  Source: tilt-dev/tilt

It appears to be missing newlines

Seems tilt is styling <code> (typically a display: inline element) as display: block such that each line is its own <code> element. Copying and pasting that confuses JIRA's rich text editor which doesn't know how to interpret that.

One way to fix would be to remove display: block from the style being applied to the <code>elements and inserting <br>s in between each code element

Confusingly, paste into say Vim works, because it uses the plain-text buffer

It also seems unfortunate that when pasting into a google doc, I get white-on-white.

FWIW, "doesn't work" might be overstating it. I've tried reproing the newline issue in a dozen different web apps, including google docs, gmail, clubhouse, jira, and a bunch of random web rich text editors I found via google, without any luck.

I don't know if it's an issue of a difference in version of JIRA, or Chrome, or MacOS.
