@bhuvansingla we are aware of this issue that for certain resources if the text is copied from, the indentation gets broken once its pasted. Will update here as soon as we've pushed the fix for same.

Thanks Roydev! Any chance you know of any hack I could use in the meanwhile?

RRoydev

Do not believe there is any except if you paste it to word/notes or somewhere similar and then paste it to Portkey Editor it should work just fine.

Let me know if that works till we provides a complete solution to this issue.

Ahh that's helpful. So copy from VSCode doesn't work, but from Notes does work. Thanks a lot! 🙌

I also noticed copying back from Portkey to a text editor adds an extra new line after every line 🐛
