Hi--

I'm using 2.0beta04. I'm trying to copy from the Preview Mode to an
html-format email (Outlook). But the copy comes into Outlook as pure
text instead of the formatted text (like when copy/paste from web
browser, Word doc, etc). Can WikidPad be enhanced to copy to the
clipboard with formatting intact? I need to do this type of thing
quite often.

I worked-around it by exporting to HTML and loading into web-browser
and then copy/pasting from there. Pretty painful though.

Thanks,
--Myles

You can use Internet Explorer as HTML renderer in WikidPad which
supports this.

In options dialog go to page "HTML preview/export", set entry "Preview
renderer" to "IE" and restart WikidPad.
