Hey all,
I thought I saw a topic mentioning that already, but could not find it, so sorry in advance if I’m double-posting. Or was it on the chat? Who knows.
Could not find a reliable way to reproduce so far, but I’ve been observing this one quite a lot since a few months. When copying and pasting elements in the patch, I sometimes get this error thrown in the “old” console. Sadly it looks like something is broken with the clip-board since I was not able to copy the console text at all, hence the ugly screenshot.
Just thought I would open this topic so that we can gather more feedback if someones sees it as well.
Cheers!
