Hello,
I’m running into an issue, trying to paste mac address into a text box and sometimes the combination of letters and numbers change the text to an icon. Example: 00:02:de:81:f5:6b

Turn off emotes

Hi
+5Good afternoon,
How interesting! I think the :de is an emoji for Denmark? I’ll see if I can find a work around and also provide this feedback to the right team.

Thanks for the reply! Here’s another example, this one is creating the emoji for a CD
00:01:5c:b7:cd:e7
+5I did find a workaround, but I will still report this behavior internally.
The work around I found is that when pasting, if you select where you want to paste (in a sticky note, or text box, etc) right click and select “paste” in the menu. This allowed me to paste without the emoji being added.

Hi
Try to use the code block feature to preserve text formatting, ideal for technical data like MAC addresses that shouldn't be auto-formatted or converted to emojis
Make use of the hep article and see if that helps.
