Character formatting lost on Copy/cut and paste
2.0.3 / 2.1 / Win 7/10
When you copy/cut and paste text, all character formatting is lost. For example, try cutting and pasting the text from one frame to another in the attached file. IMV, this operation should retain the character formatting.

In French MS, try this : I change in the INSPECTOR. See picture and tell me.
In reply to In French MS, try this : I by Raymond Wicquart
When I tried Raymond's method, I copied the text, clicked the frame and changed the style to Text Line in the inspector, THEN pasted and the formatting remained. I would expect the the formatting to remain and the change in the inspector to be unnecessary.

So, to retain character formatting when copying frame text:
1. Click on the original frame text.
2. Do a standard copy or cut.
3. Click on a note, or another frame—text, vertical or horizontal.
4. Paste the clipboard.
In reply to So, to retain character by geetar
What seems to be the case is that formatting is preserved when copying *an entire text object* - i.e., starting from normal as opposed to text edit mode. Formatting is lost when copying regions of text within a single text object while in text edit mode (even if that region happens to encompass the entire text object. At least, that's how it appears to me?
