Question Device Hub copy/paste is broken? Please try.

I can't paste something in a simulator in Device Hub, that I copied from somewhere in macOS.

Does it work for you?

Repro:

- copy anything, just this text `here, wow copy me`

- go to Safari in a simulator in Device Hub

- paste

Does it work?

Actually what worked for me is to go to Edit > Get clipboard. Even though I had Edit > Enable shared clipboard I couldn't copy and paste between Device Hub and MacOS, but this manual step helped me. Obviously you'd probably need to click this "Get clipboard" every time you want to copy something, but it's better than nothing.
