Pasting from RVF table to text

Post by Splinter »

Hi,

If I select a whole table in RVE and paste it into notepad the text is pasted but each cell text appears vertically down the notepad page, with new lines for each empty cell.

If select part of a table in RVE, nothing is pasted into notepad at all.

In MS Word pasting a table into notepad results in tab delmitted text so the notepad output looks similar to the original table (without the borders). Is this possible to achieve with RVE copy and paste?

Thanks

Unfortunately, saving multicell selection in text and RTF is not implemented yet, only in RVF.
There is a difference in selecting the table as a whole item and in selecting all cells. In the first case, it should be saved in text or RTF.

Ok.

Yes, whole table selection copy and paste to RTF works fine. However the text implementation, with each cell contents pasted on a new line rather than tab delimited, renders it difficult to use/read. Any chance of changing this?

Tables have TextColSeparator and TextRowSeparator properties.

(to-do: to fix TextCowSeparator in the help file :))
