'New Generator' error #24

When creating a new Generator, after first copying a section of script steps to the clipboard, I get a popover with the following text:- 'Sorry! We couldn't find any FileMaker Object XML'

I am using Windows 7 Pro 64 bit, and FMPA 16.0.2.205

Things I have observed....

  • In the script 'On Open New Clip', clip_GetFMObjectType returns "" ($clipType is empty)
  • In the custom function clip_GetFMObjectType, the case statement seems to just cater for MAC clipboard object types.

I'm sure you guys already have this information, but just in case you don't...

From https://www.briandunning.com/cf/2010, windows clipboard object types

//Windows Formats
format = "Mac-XMFD" ; "Field" ;
format = "Mac-XMSC" ; "Script" ;
format = "Mac-XMSS" ; "Script Step" ;
format = "Mac-XML2" ; "Layout Object" ;
format = "Mac-XMFN" ; "Custom Function" ;
format = "Mac-XMTB" ; "Table" ;
format = "CF_UNICODETEXT" ; "Plain Text" ;

My level of FM knowledge isn't up to fixing this - my apologies - I have tried to add the above and tinker around with the Let statement, but I have not been successful.....
