Pasting a code snippet inside ticks doesn't format as a code snippet
Hi,
In teams if I type `foo` the output is formatted as a code snippet.
If instead of typing the code snippet, I paste the code snippet (i.e. `[ctrl+v]`) the value is not formatted as a code snippet. To get around this, I have to type `[ctrl+v][space]`[backspace] which seems like a bug.
Also, if I type two ticks (i.e. ``) and then paste code between the two ticks, it is also not formatted, even if I hit space.
Thanks!
- No problem!
If you feel that it’s more of a bug with the desktop client then please feel free to raise it through one of these channels -
1. In a ticket to Microsoft
2. On the bug section at Uservoice here - https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/908686-bug-reports
3. Or I now believe you can send a report through the desktop client in the Help section.
Hope that answers your question
Best, Chris

Best, Chris- chawsCopper ContributorI see this as more of a workaround than a fix to the UX bug. Thanks for this info though!
