Just noticed this. In v1 I was able to hi-lite a powers text and then paste it into Notepad to get the formating out. This came in handy for posting power write ups, and also in building content for my website.

Now in v2 Im not able to copy the text directly. If I select a power I am able to copy and paste the text into Notepad, but it's marked up with HTML now:

26 <html><table width=331 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 border=0><tr><td valign="top" align="left" colspan=3 width=331><i>Greater Immolating Hands of Hall Clearing:</i> Killing Attack - Ranged 2d6 (vs. ED), Lingering up to 1 Turn (+1/2), Area Of Effect (18" Long, 4" Tall, 4" Wide Line; +2), x4 Width (+0), x4 Height (+0) (105 Active Points); 1 Continuing Charge lasting 1 Turn (-1 1/2), Gestures (Requires both hands; -1/2), No Range (-1/2), Requires A Magic Skill vs Spell Resistance Roll (No Active Point penalty to Skill Roll, RSR Skill is subject to Skill vs. Skill contests -1/4), Extra Time (Delayed Phase, -1/4)</td></tr><tr><td></td><td width="10"></td><td valign="top" align="left" width=321><b>Notes:&nbsp;</b>Transmutation, Fire, NEW</td></tr></table></html>

Personally, I rather prefer the v1 ability to copy the text out raw, and am curious about the change in v2.

Ah yes...I was meaning to work on that (completely forgot).

I've got it set now so that when you copy an item in one of the purchase lists (Edit -> Copy, or right click -> Copy), it will not only copy the item into HD's copy buffer, but will also place the text of the item into the system clipboard.

Should take care of what you're looking for.....
