Hi,

Is there a way to remove formatting from text?

Kind Regards,

Craig

Hi,

That doesn't seem to work. It just pastes it exactly as it was cut. I am referring to clips I have made from the web rather than my own written text notes. I don't know if that makes a difference?

Sorry, I think I've worked this out. Ctrl+v on my PC just pastes it exactly as it was cut. But if I right click I can paste it as plain text. So I think I know what I'm doing now. :D

EDIT:-

Actually, it is currently not possible to paste this a plain text. I use a Windows 7 PC and I don't understand why I cannot mirror the instructions given. Perhaps these methods aren't being tested on Windows operating system/Windows 7? Ctrl+x cuts it but ctrl+v / ctrl+alt+v simply pastes it back down in the format it was cut (which it should do, so not sure why it is expected to paste it down as plain text text?). There is no paste as plain text option in the context menu when right clicking in the program either. The only way I can see to currently remove formatting is to cut the text out of the note and paste it into another word processing application, remove formatting and then paste back into the note.

Hi all,

I just tested it, and it works fine with "press Ctrl+X (Cut), then press Ctrl+Alt+V (Paste as plain text)"

BTW It really should be available in context menu too. It's a useful option but hidden for no reason.
