All components, except text boxes, have character limits. If a copy paste into a component doesn't work it is due to the pasted text being greater than the character limit for that component's text field

Most component customizations are done in the right sidebar; this includes coloring/style, image inserting, or showing/hiding features on the component. 

To view the settings available for a component make sure the component is selected. Once selected, the right sidebar will populate with features of the component to edit.
