Bug ID: 172800
Summary: Restore 'paste special' or 'paste unformatted text'
option to context menu for adding text within a cell
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 26.2.1.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
A couple of versions of Calc ago, the option existed to paste additional text
into a partially filled cell without the format being pasted too. As things
stand now, if the text to be added to the cell has a different format (font or
type size) than what's already in the cell, the cell format is overwritten by
the pasted text and ctr-m is required to revert the cell to its original
format. Restoring the 'paste without format' option to the context menu for
pasting within a partially filled cell would be useful. Keyword FORMATTING
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Have a partially filled cell in Calc
2.Copy text from another source e.g., webpage
3.Double click within the cell to place cursor at the end of the existing text
4.Right click at cursor location to bring up context menu
5.Select 'paste'
6.Contents of cell will change format (font, size) to match pasted text
7.Hit ctrl-m to revert cell contents to the original cell format
Actual Results:
n/a
Expected Results:
n/a
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
The context menu option to paste unformatted text into a partially filled cell
should be restored, as it was available in previous versions of Calc.
