    When I select text in Ulysses, copy it and paste it on other part of the document Ulysses adds a space before and after the selection.

    Is there a way to remove this behaviour? It's annoying me a lot, and I don't see a way of changing it.

    I think the option you're looking for is "Smart Copy/Paste". Open up the Preferences (Cmd-,), go to Standard Mode, and disable Smart Copy/Paste. It's actually one of OS X's system text features.

    Thank you very much, this fixed my problem, and you answered really quickly. I didn't know what this smart copy/paste was, now I know I'm smarter than it so better disable it.

    However, disabling Smart Copy/Paste does not work for the Notes where the spaces are added regardless of the preference setting

    True. However, you can enable Smart Copy/Paste for the current Note by selecting that Note and enabling "Smart Copy/Paste" in Edit > Substitutions. Works only for the current Note though..
