Whether the user can match the format of the text in the document will depend on which program they are using, not on the way you copy the text. On the Mac, for instance, some programs have a Paste and Match Style command, in the Edit menu, as well as the normal Paste. The difference being, that if you select the normal Paste, it will paste your text *exactly* as it was copied - ie., with the format (font, size, etc.) the way it was copied originally. If you select Paste and Match Style, then it will ignore the formatting of the text on the clipboard, and will force it to follow the formatting of the document where you're pasting it.

In the past, I have an option menu where the use could select font and font size for pasting from an app to a word processing document. I believe that if you simply use the 'copy' command, it will automatically copy all of the information - including all of the formatting - into the clipboard, including font and fontsize (and style, and colour, etc.). The user then, in their word processing program, can choose whether to Paste the copied text (which will also paste all of the copied formatting), or to Paste and Match Style (which will paste just the raw text info - no formatting - and then adjust the formatting to match the style in the user's document). I believe that if you want to make sure that the user will only copy *raw text* info - without copying any of the formatting - you can use the clipboardData property. If you want the user to be able to copy some formatting, but not others - ie., you want them to be able to copy the font and the size, but not the style or the colour of the text - then you will have to roll out your own special Copy commands. These commands will likely put the selected text into a variable, 'erase' the unwanted formatting, and then set the clipboardData with the re-formatted text from the variable. I hope these help.

Re: Script problem
Dick, As far as I can tell, the problem had to do with other marked cards that had checkboxes despite not having a custom property. When I initially tested my code with a sample stack, all of the cards were marked and had checkboxes with custom properties. In my actual project, there were marked cards but some of the cards did not have checkboxes with custom properties. When I added a little bit more code to catch my empty custom properties, my code was working again without the insertion of five blank lines. Despite Therry's code to identify checkboxes that had my custom property, I had cards identified as having checkboxes with custom properties when there were none on the cards. Again, I checked all of my checkboxes several times and could not find any with blank strings for custom properties.

Re: Script problem
Thierry, Thanks for your suggestion! I do have a cr after each string for each uMyLabel so when it is inserted into my scrolling field the checkbox labels are separated by a cr. I would expect this only to affect the subsequent checked checkbox after the initial checked checkbox. This was not a problem in my sample test stack which had about 40-50 checkboxes. I did not encounter any blank lines before any checkbox uMyLabels were inserted in my field, which is intended for printing. As you can see from my script, only checked checkboxes on marked cards are inserted in the scrolling field. If only one checkbox is checked, there are five blank lines before the checkbox label in my actual project. So I am still at a loss on what is going on. I have checked my settings for scrolling field for simple answer but found nothing. You might be wondering why I am using this code. I am trying to set up so that only checked checkboxes are printed in a print out of recommendations list selected by the user. My original version of my project printed all of the checkboxes regardless of whether they were selected by the user. Again, thanks for your ideas and suggestions!

Re: Script problem
Hi Therry! I tried your script suggestion. It reported card 32 and button 38. When I checked this information, there were no checkbox buttons that have custom properties on this card. I went through my project and checked all of the some 700+ checkboxes and did not find any checkboxes that had the uMyLabel custom property and no custom property label. I did find two fields that have an uMyLabel, which they shouldn't have and removed the custom properties for them. But I am still getting the five blank lines in my recommendation field. I should have mentioned that the recommendation field is a scrolling field. I have tried my code in a smaller sample stack with a scrolling field but did not have the 5 blank fields. I checked and found both scrolling fields have the same settings. Nevertheless, I tried various combinations of property settings, including the new Layer Mode with no success. I also found an old group script on one of my cards and removed it but still no success. I am use the find function in LC but still have not found the problem.
