With an account, you can revise, criticize, and comment on ideas.When copying a box quote from Veritula, the box quote formatting (>) is lost.
To be clear, if you copy the entire box quote and paste it into a textarea, it will start with the > sign. I just double checked.
You’re saying you’d still want the > if you only copy/pasted part of the box quote, right?

This doesn't work for me the way it does for you. I tried copying the entire quote, and also in a separate attempt, copying extra stuff above and below the box quote, and neither gave me the > sign.
I have tried on my windows computer and my iPad.
I tried copying the entire quote…
Cannot reproduce. If I triple-click a word in a box quote, then copy/paste, I get the > sign.
Ah, but I can reproduce when I manually make the selection by clicking and dragging to cover the entire quote (and only the quote, nothing above or below).
… copying extra stuff above and below the box quote, and neither gave me the > sign.
Cannot reproduce, neither on iPad nor macOS.
When you copy text for an inline quote, you wouldn’t want the box-quote formatting.
There’s a way to get what you want: if you select some text in an idea before hitting its criticize or comment button, the selected text should always be inserted as a box quote.
Archiving this criticism for now, but if you’re still seeing any issues, let me know and I’ll take another look.
