Description bugquestcontri 2013-03-04 02:14:51 UTC

Problem description: 
Pasting unformatted text is the way in LibO to keep the destination format. This is a better way than MSO's handling of "keep destination format" However, one has to go via ctrl+shift+v and then select "unformatted text". This is a loss of productivity.

Enhance solution:
Add the possibility to assign key board short cut by adding in EDIT, FUNCTION "Paste unformatted text"
Operating System: Windows XP
Version: 3.6.5.2 release

Currently we have this shortcut for Writer (<alt+control+shift+v>) by default. 
In other applications "Paste plain Text" or similar is not offered in the Customize dialog so that.

Simple workaround, you can record a macro.

An Easyhack would be to create a small Extension adding this function (similar to recorded macro). 

I checked 3.3.3, function also missing in Customize dialog. Seems we never had that.

This looks like it might be a duplicate of bug 50746 (Calc) and bug 51525 (Impress).

Commit 84b4b7b931b194fc4d1980d2fa9c7fd6e0c9134c which fixed
#51525 should also fix this bug for Impress/Draw. There is no "paste unformatted" per se for calc yet (there is a "paste only text" -- but that literally pastes only text, and doesn't paste numbers/dates/etc. so hardly counts as equivalent), so not entirely fixed. I'm not sure we shouldn't just mark this as a duplicate of #50746, seeing as adding the functionality means that the shortcut will automatically work (or at least *should* automatically work).
