What issue do you have?

If I copy from Joplin the Markdown rendered HTML content using CSS and paste it in another application the CSS is preserved expect the background color of text. For example I am using for highlighting red text with yellow background. If I copy the HTML rendered text in a different application the text is red but the yellow background is missing.

It would be great is this feature will be completed to preserve the CSS configure background color for text etc.

Thankyou for raising it, can you tell me how are you highlighting the text. I checked but I did not find how to do it.

Here a small example. I defined in in my home directory .config/joplin-desktop/userstyle.css, which includes the following code

b, strong {
font-style: normal;
color: red;
background: yellow;
}

In the version v3.5.13 the copy and paste preserves the background color.
