Thread: Version 8.13 now encapsulates any copy and paste value in double quotes - how to remove that?

Hi,
Version 8.13 has introduced encapsulation in double quotes for any value copied from one row/column to another row/column.
That will not work for me, so how can I turn that new "feature" OFF?

Best regards

Pablo,

Changing that setting has no impact on this issue - as confirmed by Aditya, it is actually a bug.

But when reading the bug report, I see there IS a workaround, of sorts: You can use CTRL-X (cut) instead of CTRL-C (copy), the paste it back to the original position before pasting it into the new position. Messy, but maybe a little bit quicker than using CTRL-C and then delete the double quotes etc.

I any case, I hope this regression bug will be fixed asap.

Aditya, thank you very much for clarifying that the issue has been reported and accepted as a bug.

Best regards
Calle
