Topic: Note Editing, allow for the selection of non-contiguous text
I am absolutely in love with the new rich text features for "Notes". But there is one small feature that is proving to be a bottleneck. Currently it is not possible to make non-contiguous selections and format them in one go
Instead I have to select each text and format it one by by one:

To be able to select bits of text all over of the place and applying formatting to it in one go, would speed things up considerably and also reduce mistakes.
I hope the team will consider this. Thanks.
Thanks for the suggestion! Unfortunately multi cursor editing is quite a big thing as it is not supported by the underlying system that we use (Qt) but we'll make a note that it is something you would like to see. Maybe something a bit easier to add would be copy & paste formatting commands?
I understand, no worries :)

Yes please, that would be amazing to have. It sounds like such a command could be used to apply formatting to selections in other notes as well. Sounds very usefull, looking forward to it.
Copy/paste formatting commands (Ctrl+Alt+C/V) are now available in 2.0.0.beta9 :)
Amazing, this is going to be really usefull. Cheers!
