Copying text directly from posts - Kaguya Houraisan - 06-04-2018

I've just noted that when I copy text directly from a post, the white font is also copied. I don't know if this was intentional, but I find it kind of annoying because when I paste the copied text when I'm making a post, the characters are invisible in the white background.  The only way I know to solve this, is by pasting into Notepad to then copy it from there, but maybe it would be nice to spare the bother.

I don't have this issue. What's your environment look like (OS, browser)?

For now, a workaround would be to either "paste as plain text" if that's an option in the right click menu or clicking the "view source" button (the rightmost button in the wysiwyg options) before pasting text

I hadn't tried what you said, but while using notepad works as well, I just thought it would be nice if there was a simpler way to disable the copying of text features included.

when you paste into things use the "paste as plain text option"
the browser is copying all the richtext elements(like colour and size)

Welp, seems I have always been overlooking that option, until now that I pay attention. Thanks!
