[This is an automated message.] This bug was filed before the changes to Bugzilla on 2011-10-16. Thus it started right out as NEW without ever being explicitly confirmed. The bug is changed to state NEEDINFO for this reason. To move this bug from NEEDINFO back to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 prereleases. Details on how to test the 3.5.0 beta1 can be found at: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugHunting_Session_3.5.0.-1 more detail on this bulk operation: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/RFC-Operation-Spamzilla-tp3607474p3607474.html To solve this problem: do in menu: Tools->Customize in Dialog "Customise": select tab Keyboard in field "Category" select "Edit" in field "Funciton" select "Paste unformatted text" in field "Shortcut keys" select "Control+V" press Modify on right hand side of dialog press OK now Ctrl-V will always insert text in destination format Still present in 3.5.1-1 There really should be another function. Copy in libreoffice should always respect formatting but copy from something like webpage should default to unformatted.... Im currently working on a thesis and copy quotes and stuff from the web, and at the same time moving around text with footers, problem is i sometimes forget to paste special with my own text resulting in footer being deleted.... and thats really bad.... |
