Having issue with the clipboard copmonant where it is unable to convert \n into new line.

Here is the code in Xhtml:

<p:commandButton id="cmdCopyQueAns" action="#{pc_inprocessBean.copyQueAns()}" immediate="true" 
 ajax="true" value="#{candidateLbl['scrQueAns.copy']}" styleClass="btn btn-primary" update=":frm:messages"/>
 
<pe:clipboard id="clipCopy" trigger="cmdCopyQueAns" action="copy" text="#{pc_inprocessBean.selectedCandVO.cndJobQueAns}"/>

Expected output:

Add your Email:abc@abc.com
Add your name:Abc

What i am getting:

Add your Email:abc@abc.com\n\nAdd your name:Abc

Any Idea on how to resolve this?

Okay i'm having same thing but still not working. Do i have to upgrade extension version? I'm using Primefaces Extensions 6.2.11

Yep most likely this was fixed somewhere along the lines because I could not reproduce in PFE 8.0.4 so maybe ClipboardJS fixed the issue under the covers?

If you can create a reproducible test case using PrimeFaces Test I can investigate the issue but I was not able to reproduce it.

I saw on the tags that test is available for 8.0 and 10.0 but we are using PrimeFaces 6.2.8.

Yeah for PF 6.2 the last release of PFE was 6.2.10. When I tested that bug I was using 8.0.4 and could not reproduce. We don't release old versions of PFE so there will be no 6.2.11. We only keep up to date on the latest PF version.
