Junk Yard · What gets captured
Does the Junk Yard keep the formatting of text I copy?
Short answer: Yes. Rich text keeps its formatting on the board and when you copy it back; apps that only take plain text get the words. Rich scraps appear under the Rich filter.
Yes — text and rich notes are kept with their formatting, and they appear under the Rich filter. When you copy a rich scrap back, apps that understand formatting get it styled, and apps that only take plain text get the words.
If you want plain words when pasting, paste with your app's own "paste and match style" command, or edit the scrap in a New note and use ⇧⌘V to paste without formatting there.
