Hi,

I have tried on Mac, I am able to copy paste the file name.

Could you please try to explain more and give following details 

  • Machine configuration
  • Photoshop version
  • Did you get any error, or may be you could post a screenshot.

 

Best regards

Hi there,

thanks for answering.

I'm using the latest version of Photoshop with MacOS Catalina 10.15.5

I've checking around and some other users has the same problem. 
There is no error message, when you want to paste text saving "normal" it works, but not in the dialog box when saving for web. I can paste it with right button > paste, but for me it's more easy and agile doing it with the keyboard (command V) ... it has been always working like this, but I think it's since I have installed Catalina that this is not working anymore.

 

Thanks
