Pasting text - without attributes
« on: December 11, 2008, 02:54:11 PM »
A question you might be able to help with:
If I copy some text from an application, (for example WORD), and paste it into the caption area, it seems to carry with it the size, and sometimes font, of the original text, rather than it being the same as if I had just typed in the box.  Is there a way that this can be avoided?  Word, for example, has a Paste Special which strips any attributes from the pasted text.
Many thanks,
Martin

No, currently there is no way to avoid this.
