Hi, I have cornered my cut and paste problems. There seems to be a bug with 
the handling of styles.

First, I create a new document, insert a textbox, type some text in it.

When I copy and paste it, everything works fine.

However, when go to edit->stylesheets and insert one or more styles, save 
them, and then copy and paste it, nothing is pasted. 

I have put some debug messages in the copy/paste routines; the clipboard 
buffer differs only in the style entries.

For example:

...
 <COLOR RGB="#ffff00" CMYK="#0000ff00" NAME="Yellow" />
</SCRIBUSELEMUTF8>

(no style defined) versus:

...
 <COLOR RGB="#ffff00" CMYK="#0000ff00" NAME="Yellow" />
 <STYLE ALIGN="0" LINESP="14.4" VOR="0" NACH="0" FIRST="0" INDENT="0" 
FONTSIZE="12" NAME="danadard" FONT="Bitstream Charter Bold" />
 <STYLE ALIGN="0" LINESP="14.4" VOR="0" NACH="0" FIRST="0" INDENT="0" 
FONTSIZE="12" NAME="dsfds" FONT="Bitstream Charter Bold" />
</SCRIBUSELEMUTF8>

(two styles defined).

When I actually *assign* any style != "No style" to text, it survives the copy 
and paste process again.

Do you have any idea how I could corner this further?

Thanks,
