How can I copy the format of one sentence or paragraph onto another sentence or paragraph?

When I copy and paste a section from one article to another, I want to change the format of the imported section to match the rest of the article. In Outlook or eM Client, I would use the paintbrush icon for this. How do I copy the format of a section in Thunderbird to another section?
Many thanks.

I'd be using Stationery to assert my preferred styles, and then use "Paste without formatting" to allow the formatting that is currently in force to be applied to pasted text, ignoring any already attached to the imported text. A weakness of Thunderbird in its native form is that it tends to forget to insert your chosen default font etc. The Stationery add-on cures this by making your requirement explicit.
Messages sent by Thunderbird users often appear in (IMHO) ugly serif text, which is Outlook's default, because Thunderbird forgets to say you chose a sans-serif font when composing.
Without Stationery, all your efforts at harmonizing your text may come to naught.

  • How can I copy cell formatting from one range to another?

    How can I copy cell formatting from one range to another, including text fonts, colours, borders, etc., so that, for example, I can reuse a formatted reconciliation table again in different parts of a sheet?

    Hi George,
    Wayne found the Spinning Beachball of Death, and you will find it too.
    Numbers is not good at handling large datasets. Might I suggest that you group your data into smaller sets (each month, perhaps?) and save each group in a separate Numbers document. Numbers will not link between documents, but you could have a summary Table within each document. Then comes the "clunky" bit of copying all those summary tables into a master document where you do the final processing of the data.
    Regards,
    Ian.

  • I have copied my CDs into iTunes  (currently running v11) to play on my iPod.  I have now bought a non Apple mp3 player to use when I am out running.  How can I copy the many tracks I want from iTunes onto the new player?

    I have copied my CDs into iTunes  (currently running v11) to play on my iPod.  I have now bought a non Apple mp3 player to use when I am out running.  How can I copy the many tracks I want from iTunes onto the new player?
    Thanks

    I tried Notpod but can't get it to work.  Part of the problem, I suspect, is that I can't create a folder on my player (a SanDisk Clip+).  I also can't do this in Windows Explorer.  Whilst I can see the Clip+ in Explorer, the option to create a new folder isn't there.
    The error mesag I get in Notpod is:
    "Unhandled exception has occurred in your application.  If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue.  If you click Quit the application will close immediately.
    InvalidArgument=Value of '0' is not valid for 'SelctedIndex'. Parameter name: SelectedIndex"
    Then, when I plug the Clip+ into a USB port, iTunes thinks it is my iPad - which is because, I guess, Notpod hasn't worked.
    I can drag and drop files from the Music folder where my iTunes tracks are stored onto the Clip+ and they get converted but I'd rather synchronise a Playlist from iTunes if I can.
    Thanks anyone who can help

  • How can I copy the layer from one .PSD file to another .PSD file?

    Hi,
    Actually it is shape and mask on one layer which I want to use it on my Photoshop CS4 file. If I select all the layer and copy it to my file it just copies the shape but not the mask. How can I copy MASK to my file?
    Please do hlep.
    Actually I am trying to copy the following layer.

    I believe the fastest way would be to duplicate the layer and send it to the other document. Open both images. Click the document tab of the document with the shape layer. With the shape layer selected in the layers palette, right click where it says the shape layer name. Select "duplicate layer" from the context menu. In the dialog that comes up, select the document you want to copy that layer to in the destination box then press ok.
    Alternately, you can open both images then pull the document frame tabs down to open both images in your workspace. Grab the shape layer in the document's layers palette by left clicking it...keep the left button pressed (hand icon should be a grab icon). While left button is still pressed, drag the shape layer over the receiving document. To make the shape layer register in the same location, press the shift key and keep it pressed. Release left mouse button while the layer is over the receiving document. Release shift key after you have released the left mouse button.
    This tutorial has a good photo reference for what I mean when I say pull the image tabs down so both documents appear in the same workspace...also shows drag/drop:

    I can download the config, but do not see any upload options.

    Fred,
    The saved config is a text file.
    You should be able to backup a config to your desktop and restore it to another similar unit.  I hope..
    let me know if you have any problems. See my screen shot below;

  • How can I copy the kindle format books on my iPad to my Linux PC.?

    My iPad battery is dying/dead.  How can I copy the kindle format books on my iPad to my Linux PC?  Because i understand they'll be lost when i get Apple to 'fix' my battery.

    Meg, thanks but these are Science Fiction books from Baen Books directly.  I realize I could go back to the publisher and redownload them but there are 100+ books and I'd like to avoid that.  What I'd prefer to do is to find where they are on the IPad and then copy them to my PC and then be able to copy them back to the replacement iPad.
    Does anyone know how to do that?

  • How can i copy the music files from itunes in mp3 format to my PC

    How can i copy the music files from itunes in mp3 format to my PC

    Dr. P,
    Song files are just files.  You can copy them the way you copy any other files, like photos or documents.
    If any of the files are not already in MP3 format, and you wish to create MP3 versions, then you can convert them using iTunes, by following this guide:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1550

    Done.

    I have no problems copying iMovie Events from one Mac to another, however, how can I copy iMovie Projects from one Mac to another?  Any help will be appreciated.  Thank you.

    This should give you some good insight, I'd probably store them on an External HD on the old machine and then just drag and drop to the new machine.

  • !0.5.8 How do I copy the 'system' form one internal Hard drive to an other (BY CD Packed up) Thank you

    Carbon Copy Cloner will allow you to de-select directory trees, so you could use it to copy over everything EXCEPT the /Users directory tree.
    Mac OS X is NOT just the System Folder.  If you do not copy over the rest of Mac OS X, it will not boot.  So better to exclude Users and take everything else, then it is to try and pick and choose.
    The other approach is to install a New Mac OS X, and then copy over the stuff you want from the home folder(s) and reinstall any apps you want.

    Do you mean copy it?  If so, see #18 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions  You'll need section 2 there.

  • I have used the resume tablet and put my resume into format but when emailing it, it will not open on windows. How can I change the format to where they will be able to open and view it?

    I have used the resume tablet and put my resume into format but when emailing it, it will not open on windows. How can I change the format to where they will be able to open and view it?

    I guess you mean one of the resume templates.
    What "format" have you saved your finished resume in?
    The only formats a Windows user will be able to open are .doc (Word), .pdf and rtf. The 1st 2 are usually the best.
    There is no Windows version of Pages.

  • How do I copy and paste from one page or file to another page or file - on the same screen?

    How do I copy and paste from one page or file to another - on the same screen?

      Open both of your images in the Editor. Click on the image you want to copy and press Ctrtl+A (select all) followed by Ctrl+C (copy) then click the tab for your other image and press Ctrl+V (paste)
    Alternatively click on your background image then simply drag the second image from the photo/project bin and drop it into the main editor workspace on top of the background image. Use the move tool to position and the corner handles of the bounding box to scale.

  • How can I use the button in one panel to control the other panel's appearing and disappearing?

    How can I use the button in one panel to control the other panel's
    appearing and disappearing? What I want is when I push the button on
    one button . another panel appears to display something and when I
    push it again, that the second panel disappears.

    > How can I use the button in one panel to control the other panel's

    >
    You want to use a combination of three features, a button on the panel,
    code to notice value changes using either polling in a state machine of
    some sort or an event structure, and a VI Server property node to set
    the Visible property of the VI being opened and closed.
    The button exists on the controlling panel. The code to notice value
    changes is probably on the controlling panel's diagram, and this diagram
    sets the Visible property node of a VI class property node to FALSE or
    TRUE to show or
    hide the panel. To get the VI reference to wire to the
    property node, you probably want to use the Open VI Reference node with
    the VI name.
