Copy/Paste Formatted text from TextNote to clipboard

[pschleppy]

I am trying to copy the content of the TextNote into Clipboard. Currently I have following code. The code copies text into clipboard without formatting. Is there a way to copy content of a TextNote along with its formatting?

var elem = doc.GetElement(pickedRef);
var textNote = elem as TextNote;
System.Windows.Clipboard.SetData(System.Windows.TextDataFormat.Text.ToString(), textNote.Text);

Dear Paul,

Thank you for your query.

TextNote.GetFormattedText?

Here is the code that seems to work.  Originally got the idea from Martin Schmid (thanks)... Googled to find how again and found this forum entry (which often are incomplete), so now that I further researched - here it is...

Not 100% sure which of these two are need (or both) but using...

using System.Windows;

using System.Windows.Forms;

INSIDE YOUR CODE... where:

string catalogProductItemInfo = "The string of text you want to go to clipboard (or other variable - text info etc)";

call this:

Clipboard.SetText(catalogProductItemInfo);
