Resolve Copy Paste Issue

[amitava82]

Are you seeing these text /react-text react-text: 193?
I'm testing on Android, looks alright

[eric-lobdell]

Yeah on iOS and desktop when I paste that string appears.

[amitava82]

which desktop and browser?

[eric-lobdell]

Ah, you're right! it's only happening in Safari desktop / Safari mobile

[amitava82]

Clipboard is not supported in Safari https://clipboardjs.com/

[eric-lobdell]

Well we don't need the button to actually copy the text. Are we using clipboard for the sole purpose of selecting all text? I figured on mobile:

1. tap the button
2. manually tap to copy text to native clipboard from web.
3. paste anywhere

Then it would just behave as if you had copied a large string of text. On desktop, I thought we could copy text to the clipboard in one click, but if that's not the case, we can just do the same as mobile.

No clipboard will automatically copy the code in clipboard. Selection is separate. I tried on Mac and Safari and it seems to copy correct code

Interesting. Let's consider this resolved until I can find steps to reproduce. There might be an issue with the way I'm packaging it, perhaps?

[amitava82]

Try with new packed script and let me know.

[eric-lobdell]

Somehow it happens only when you paste into Messages app on a mac, from Safari browser:

1. using Safari on OS X, type a word
2. press "select emoji" button
3. press CMD + C (copy output)
4. paste into email = works fine
5. paste into Apple Messages app = returns weird parse lines.

[amitava82]

Are you copying with keyboard shortcut?
Which mac app is this?

[eric-lobdell]

Sorry, I updated my reproduction steps.

yes, I use keyboard shortcut CMD + C to copy and I'm pasting directly into the Mac (OS X) Messages app

[eric-lobdell]

Another update! This only occurs when you use Safari web browser and paste into Apple Messages app...

If you use chrome and paste into messages, it works fine.

[amitava82]

Well, I'm not sure how to track it down 😵

[eric-lobdell]

If this helps, I recorded side by side to document:

[amitava82]

I'll create a repo case outside this app. If I can reproduce same issue then it either goes to React or Apple!

[amitava82]

Alright, It's a Bug either in React or Safari or Messenger or all of them :D
Bug reported in React: facebook/react#7106

[eric-lobdell]

Alright, it sounds like it's out of our hands. Thanks for digging into it!!
