Hey! Ive never had this problem before, but since today it has started to add numerous amount of line breaks when i copy/paste text from different sources.
Ive also noticed that it adds only 2 line breaks when copying from powerpoint or pdf docs.

It is getting impossible to work since i have to do a lot of copy/paste activity. Please, help!

    HACK THAT WORKS! – “Remove Formatting” (Command + \ in Mac) tool in Gmail. I still have the problem of the line breaking in the middle of words when I paste text from different sources (Copilot) into Figma. I tried making it plain text in Text Edit first, but that didn’t even work. What DOES work is pasting it into Gmail and using the tool “Remove Formatting” (Command \ on Mac). Then, when I paste it into Figma, there is no issue.
