When copying and pasting attributed text, NWP does a good job of copying the formatting.
If the text copied includes a whole paragraph it also copies the paragraph formatting, which is fine.
But one place that I always have trouble is when the piece is just a short bit of text that I want to paste at the beginning of an existing paragraph. NWP replaces the paragraph formatting along with the pasted text. It seems one has the following options:
- Paste and then correct the formatting of the paragraph
- Paste without the formatting, then correct the format of the pasted text
- Insert a character (e.g., a space), paste, then back up and eliminate the character
I guess the first question is whether one can identify the correct conditions for the case. Perhaps something like: pasting text which does not contain a return into a paragraph that already contains text?
What do people think?
