I noticed that when I'm publishing a presenter course that it corrupts the Windows clipboard and prevents me from copying and pasting in other programs. I verified this twice. Copying and pasting worked again after I closed presenter. Has anyone else encountered this?
Thanks for reporting this. However, it would be helpful if you could provide a little more detail on how this issue came about, as well as some detail on your setup.
Are you currently using Studio '09 or Studio '13?
What version of PowerPoint do you have installed and what installation type (32-bit, etc.)?
What version of Windows are you currently running, and are you running Windows through Parallels on a Mac?
What steps are needed to reproduce this issue?
If you could provide this information, I'd be happy to take a look and see if I can reproduce this as well.
Hi Daniel, Studio '09 DOES USE WINDOW CLIPBOARD, so you cannot use copy and paste functions when publishing; you would spoil your course, and have un predictable results on your Windows tasks.

Hi Dan,
Thank you very much for the additional information. I appreciate it!
I just need a little more clarification on the statement below:
">> Publish the course from within presenter. While course is publishing, copy and paste doesn't work for windows."
What program/document, etc. are you attempting to copy or paste into while the publishing process is running (Word, email client, web browser, etc.)?
Are you able to do so in any program, or does it seem disabled for multiple programs running in Windows?
How large is the project that you're publishing? Is it fairly large and leading to a longer publishing time?
Thank you!

this issue has been resolved with Studio '13.
Hope it helps,
Stefano
