very weird!

I will have to write some code to dump all of the mime types for the data on the QClipboard as something must be adding a new or changed mime type.

Does this happen with old versions of calibre and PageEdit 2.0.0 or only the most recent version?
Doesn't happen with calibre 5.44 and Page Edit 2.0.0.

What's weird is this:

If I paste a clip copied from the Normal view of a Rich Text column in calibre 6.28.1 (latest) into MS Word (latest) using the 'Keep source formatting' option I get a table.

If I paste the same clip into Page Edit 1.9.10 I get a table.

The only situation I don't get a table is if I paste the clip into Page Edit 2.0.0.

That suggests the format stripping is happening in PageEdit.

Out of curiosity, I copied the table I created in Word into PageEdit, and got a table, when I saved it into Sigil I got an epub with errors, it's in the attached zip. When I view the epub in the calibre viewer I see a table.

From a user perspective the only recent change I can recall in calibre's Rich Text editor is the addition of a button to create 'a ref' links to folders.

Nothing is making any sense.

More to come.
