Question: Does `{reprex}` support MS Teams? #446

Closed ramiromagno closed 1 year ago

I am trying to paste into MS Teams chat but to no avail. Is there a workaround?

Can you elaborate on "to no avail"? Is there anything on your clipboard? Or, there is, but it is somehow rejected for paste by Teams?

Hi Jenny,

Sorry for my bad manners! It does copy to the clipboard fine, it's just that it won't get nicely formatted automatically. I am guessing this is an issue with MS Teams rather than reprex... see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55014770/how-can-i-paste-markdown-in-microsoft-teams.

I skimmed your SO link, but yeah it sounds like you need to experiment with venue, e.g. venue = "rtf" or venue = "html" and see if those work (better), unless/until Teams starts to handle markdown. I know for Slack, one has to turn off the WYWIWYG features in order to paste actual markdown and have it formatted correctly. I think most of these tools expect you to be using their facilities for formatting and it can be tricky/impossible to paste something from elsewhere.

Thank you! I will try your suggestions.
