What I’m trying to do
I’m trying to copy a bullet list from Dynalist into Obsidian, and have it keep the same standard formatting as obsidian already uses.
Things I have tried
To provide the necessary info re copy base.
If I copy this
- here
- is
- a
- list
- that
- i
- is
- made
- in
- dynalist
in dynalist, I get this using Clipboard Test

At the moment, what bugs me is that the indenting of anything I copy in from dynalist has half the spacing on the indentations.
Here is a copy from Obsidian into the Clipboard test

When I copy the first one into Obsidian, and then copy from Obsidian into the clipboard test, I get this
