Paste Formats of Bookmarks
Meny apps I use allows users to copy text and then paste only the format of the source to text targets.  Sometims this a paste special option.  Evn yur Editor has somthing like that in Comments so that i can "Copy Comment Style" (a Style Tool) and "Apply Copied Text Style."  But I dont see a similer cappabilitie for Bookmark text other then the aukwerd "Make Current Properties Default" and then "Apply Default Properties." I am shur someon can tell me what I am missing.

Re: Paste Formats of Bookmarks
Hi Itsy,
Can you please clarify what type of text you are trying to edit? Do you mean the name etc of bookmarks in the bookmarks pane?
Kind regards,

Re: Paste Formats of Bookmarks
Thank you for asking for a clearification so quickly.  See the attached file.
If I want to change the color of the Bookmark Title text, I can do that in Properties.  
Now, I want to copy that property to another Title.
How do I do that?

Re: Paste Formats of Bookmarks
Hi Itsy - thanks for the clarification, I understand now. I'm afraid there is no automatic way to do what you want to do, and as it's quite a 'niche' request, I doubt it would get approval for a feature request - so for now your best option is simply to do this manually.
Kind regards,

Re: Paste Formats of Bookmarks
Tahnks but I am not asking it to be done 'automatically', I just want to be able to 'paste special' like I can in Word and Excel.

Hi Itsy,
Sure thing, that's what I meant - these features are unlikely to change.
Kind regards,
