Excellent tool. It really streamlines our workflow.
I am wondering if it is possible to copy just text from a multi-line text field without copying the formatting.
Since the Description field and other multi-line fields in ADO are rich text, various html tags are copied into the new child work item. Even if you erase all formatting (or even delete all of the text in the text box), ghost
tags are left in the text field. This becomes an issue when using the export to CSV feature. The Excel file ends up with lots of extra tagging in the cells.
Judging by various forums, it sounds like this is a frequent issue that is not being addressed. It would be extremely helpful for some teams to have the ability to strip that tagging when copying a Description field into the new work item.
Side question: In the configuration window, the "Actions names (New Work Item/Not a Bug/Convert Work Item/Command)" field --> What is the Command? I haven't been able to find anything that explains what this option is or how to implement it. Can you point me to any pages/docs that elaborate on the Command action?
Thanks for the great tool.
