Copying PTE field includes "normal"

[ninaandal]

When using the "Copy field" option on a PTE field in the studio, it copies the text, but includes a "normal" in the copied text.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to a PTE field
2. Click on 'Copy field'
3. Paste it somewhere
4. See that ', normal' has been included

Expected behavior

Just the text being copied in the field, and not a text representation of what I assume is the text size

Hi @ninaandal 👋 😃

Let me look into this.

I don't think there's much the @portabletext/editor can do to remedy this behaviour.

If you copy a field like this:

Then (unless I'm mistaken) all that is stored on the clipboard is:

text/plain: h1, heading 1, normal, list, 1, bullet
text/html: <meta charset="utf-8">h1, heading 1, normal, list, 1, bullet

I think, "Copy field" needs to:

1. Clean up the data it serialises as text/plain and text/html
2. Store application/x-portable-text as well

What do you think @sgulseth ?

[ninaandal]

Hm, have I maybe misinterpreted the intention of this button? Is it not supposed to copy the content of the field, but the field data itself?

I think it's meant to be used in combination with "Paste field", but I also think, just copying the text into the RTE should work as well. It's probably just not a scenario that was thought of during development.
