Copying a note from the view version to an email in gmail loses formatting

[davidjbrossard]

Is this a hackmd.io issue?

Yes, the bug happens on https://hackmd.io

What's the problem

If I go to a note e.g. https://hackmd.io/@oidf-wg-authzen/wg-meeting-20240625 and I want to select all the note's text to copy it and email it, it only pastes text. It loses formatting.

Current behaviour

Screenshot (optional)

Provide steps to reproduce:

1. Go to any note in the view-only mode.
2. Select some or all of the note's text
3. Copy the text (ctrl+c)
4. Go to your email client (gmail)
5. Paste the text (Ctrl+v) and observe that the formatting is missing

Expected behaviour

Formatting should be preserved.

Environment

I use HackMD on:
