Browser issue Copy-paste problem with formatting in editor

[Azaly]

Affected version

2.1.5

When users with Microsoft Edge (v42.17134.1038.0) copy some text from other places (from conversations in our case) and then paste in editor it goes with formatting like font family, font size, image height and so on.

Hmm. Copy/paste works strange with images too. For example I try to copy some post with image inside spoiler:

Spoiler: test

text

I've opened spoiler, selected whole post or only images and then try to paste it, but could insert only text, no image. Just try to copy these image and paste in reply by youself!

I just tried it and it works for me using Firefox 70.0.1.

That is pretty strange. Here I could copy paste it too for now (Chrome). Maybe it somehow depends on server where images are posted or protocol http/https? Here images are proxying, so they are shown from xenforo site, but on my forum they are not — image just show from its original places.

I tried it on one of my forums using your pics and it worked there also. I'm not using image proxy.

Hmm... Just recorded video in conversation (error) and thread (no error):

I actually think we have some changes for this in the latest version of 2.1 and if not, 2.2 definitely does some of its own work to clean up CSS that comes in via paste.

Saying that, if this was specific to Edge legacy as that's being replaced by Chromium Edge the behavior should now generally match Chrome, so that would generally resolve the issue.
