Quick summary
When you copy text from ChatGPT, it often carries hidden formatting that appears as a grey box when pasted. Using Paste without formatting removes that styling instantly and gives you clean, plain text.
Steps
- Go to ChatGPT and request the text you want to copy.
- Highlight the text you want to copy.
- Press Ctrl + C, or right-click and select Copy.
- Place your cursor where you want to paste, then press Ctrl + Shift + V, or right-click and choose Paste without formatting to remove the grey box.
