Closed

Description

ps1xml files have two definitions Controls and ViewDefinitions. Get-FormatData does not return controls used by a format definition so it can later be viewed and exported.

Steps to reproduce

$formats = Get-FormatData -TypeName System.IO.FileInfo -PowerShellVersion 6.0
$formats

$formats | Export-FormatData -Path c:\temp\filesys.ps1xml -IncludeScriptBlock

Expected behavior

Controls used by the format definition are returned and are able to be exported.

Actual behavior

No controls are returned or exported.
