It would be handy to be able to to use tab-delimited data in vMix. I often have to refer to a few different tabular sources, copy information from them and paste into a new file. This can be Google sheets, Excel worksheets, a table in a webpage, etc. The simplest format-independent way to use these compilations is to paste into a text doc. This results in tab-delimited data. Changing out tabs for commas for CSV format trips over "/" and "," without column values. I tried importing as TXT source, but it gives me the entire file as the single value. Ideally, I'd not have to license MS Excel for XLS to use tabular data or have to be online for Google Sheets.

Having a tab-delimited source option would allow me to use data copied from all these disparate sources and use the resulting information exactly as it is pasted, without fiddling with special characters.

Many thanks!

Chad
