Question

Copy/Paste Function only works once.

Hi, I am using Captive 2019. When I copy an object from PowerPoint I am able to paste it onto a slide in Captivate. I then choose a second object in PowerPoint and copy it.

When I try and paste it within Captivate the first object selected gets pasted again. 

Pasting in any other software does paste the 2nd object selected.

Is there a setting or option to clear the clipboard within Captivate.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    Try using the keyboard commands (Ctl-V), or try using the right click menu, whichever you were NOT using. Sometimes only one of those is effective.

    Cheers, it worked for a while, 4 copy and pastess tehn stopped again, just kept pasting the same thing. I have sonce spoken to support they suggested I just import the slides, which is no good if |I only want sections of the slide, or to save each thing has an asset whish is just ridiculous. Seems a fairly basic function that I was trying to do.
