I'd look in the formatting options (probably under "language support").


Attached (if the reflector will let me) is what I see under "language support".

I agree that something like "formatting options" is where this is likely to be... but I tried to find something along those lines before posting here, and failed :-( There are probably some other magic words, but I couldn't guess them.

Have you checked if you may be triggering a "special" paste function ("paste with 
formatting")?

Again, I can't find those words.

Entering even just the word "formatting" in the search function of the kdevelop handbook came up with no hits :-(

There is an item called "Configure Source Formatter" in the kdevelop settings, but that seems to be undocumented -- and is completely mysterious to me; I couldn't figure out at all where any function that's causing the change to the pasted text might be being controlled. I suspect (just a suspicion) that in any case "Configure Source Formatter" simply controls how existing text is formatted, and has nothing to do with the specific problem that I'm trying to address.
