Format Painter and Format Paste WordProcessor

Question

I need to implement the MSWord Format Painter functionality in Document Editor. Currently the component offers the possibility to paste the formatting of a copied text, but I need to be able to add the classic MSWord Format Painter and Format Paste commands.

Any ideas that can help me?

Thanks in advance

Hi Esther, 

Regarding: Format Painter 
Currently, Document editor doesn’t support for Format painter, we have already logged feature request for this. we will implement it any of our upcoming release.

Regarding: Format Paste  


Document-Editor already have support to paste with formatting. By default, paste with formatting option, “KeepSourceFormatting”. You can customize it based on your requirement by using below code snippet. 

DefaultPasteOption= “KeepSourceFormatting” |"MergeWithExistingFormatting”|“KeepTextOnly”; 





 
container.GetDocumentEditor().DefaultPasteOption=(PasteOptions)Enum.Parse(typeof(PasteOptions), ("KeepSourceFormatting "), true); 
 


Just for your reference, we have share documentation in typescript language:
