I still get the "Pasting the YAML code for screen isn't supported yet", but not all ways, - I tried some external YAML code, very simpel, but that did get pasted in. But what I wanted was, to copy the code from an already existing screen and paste it into another. I was thinking, that this code Im sure will work, because it's already in the app, -but.. BING! ... I get the "Pasting the YAML etc....". Isn't that strange?

Thank you! I've updated the description!
Holy smokes that’s amazing, this is something I felt like they were missing for so long.
😋
Great content as usual!
Thanks so much. :)

Its a new feature and still on preview mode, so updates are still being made. You can also try copying one control at a time if that might help 🙂
Great content.
Thanks so much! ☺☺👍👍
This is a great feature but I still don’t have it.
Have you tried to create a preview environment?
interaction with ai is gonna be so much easier. hope they push this faster without compromising quality.
Sure!🙂
