Paste clipboard: same styles but different formatting. Could destination style be kept instead, as webclipper does?

Post by cadudesun »

Hi. This is a suggestion regarding pasting content from the clipboard and keeping the same style formatting, as the webclipper already does.

I mean, when pasting, the MyInfo "destination" styles would have priority over the "source" (webpages) styles, aiming to keep consistency among the formatting of different sources.

In this screen-recording I detailed my suggestion: https://bit.ly/3I1h0is

Considering the content of the following websites, the "styles" themselves (i.e. Normal and Code) are parsed properly by MyInfo when pasting from the clipboard.
However, the font type and color formatting is different.

When using the webclipper, the MyInfo "destination" styles are kept consistent, despite the "source" style. Pasting from clipboard could do the same.

As an example, I also used Notion in the screen-recording, since when pasting from the clipboard it keeps the "destination" style consistent, despite the different "source" styles.

Than you,
Carlos
