Paintbrush/Format Painter Option

Hi! I see you have added new editing functions, which is great. But the one thing you are still missing is a paintbrush, where you select a section of text with formatting you like, click on the paintbrush, then select a new section of text to duplicate the formatting (of course you know all about it!). I just wonder why you don't offer that when it's so super helpful in Word and Google Docs etc. It's probably my main go-to tool for formatting.

 

Thanks!

Hi @Exultate thanks for following up with this detail! Does the current copy block function we offer in email campaigns help fit these needs?

I understand this feedback. I'm going to open this up for additional feedback, and edit the subject line to reflect that this seems to be a request for a "format painter" option similar to what you see in Microsoft Word.

I'd agree that functionality similar to the "format painter" in Microsoft office would be super helpful.  The copy block function copies the whole section, whereas a format painter is more helpful for copying specific formats and applying them to specific pieces of text.

Thank you for your feedback! At this time, this particular request is not on our roadmap for a future release so we will close this post as Not Currently Planned. Should we hear any news, we'll update this post with information as we receive it.

So many times I've needed a Paintbrush/Format Painter feature and I've been using Constant Contact for 12 years. It would be a REALLY useful feature if it could be implemented! Thank you!
