The sticky mode can be enabled by double-clicking the toolbar button, and it can be utilized to apply a format to multiple locations. Keyboard Shortcut CTRL + SHIFT + C - Copy the selection format or current range. CTRL + SHIFT + V - Paint the copied format. ESC - Remove the previously copied format. The following settings are available to customize the format painter in the formatPainterSettings property. Fill the Allowed Formats input with selectors only whose format styles will be allowed. For example: span; strong; em; as the input allows only the span, strong, and em format styles to be copied.
