I frequently cut and paste text from a browser into Scrivener. The style from the browser is retained. This may be useful for some but for me, I just want the text to adopt the Default within Scrivener. Is there a way to set this?
For the on-screen keyboard:

And a subsequent post for an external keyboard shortcut.
When you’ve copied, and then are ready to paste into Scrivener, if you use the screen touch method, rather than a keyboard, you’ll have a choice for this.
-
copy the original, as you usually do
-
switch to Scrivener (if not side-by-side), and tap in the document to place the cursor
-
tap on this cursor. You should get a set of choices.
-
one of those choices will be Paste. This is what you’re used to, probably, and it will be formatted like the original.
-
another of the choices will be Unformatted Paste. That’s the one you want, when you want the text style to be as in your Scrivener document.
I think this won’t be different by iPad models, but it might, so see if you can do this way…hope so
