Copy As Markdown - Second Look & Notes list context menu listing [feature request]

[pramjan]

Is there any chance of reviving this feature in the current version of the app? It certainly would be very handy to copy as markdown. as @brentsimmons points out, markdown to outline is diffucult, but I think most users would agree that is of secondary importance in this case.
Since we have export to markdown, can't we have copy to markdown?

Regards,
Pramod.

Also, for the copy function, is there any chance of including the tags and reference links?

Cheers!

Duplicate of #6.

@pramjan90, the copy function works at the row level. Not the outline level. Tags and reference links are an outline property, not a row property. There wouldn't be anything to include in a copy function.

We could add tags and reference links to the Markdown export of an outline if there was a standard to do so. Some Markdown editors and readers use YAML front matter, but there is no formal standard and it is only used in a few applications. Using YAML front matter may break Markdown editors/readers that don't recognize it. It is better to just not support it. You could write a Shortcut that does add it to an exported Markdown outline. I just can't include it in the main app.
