Thank you for your report!
REPRODUCIBLE with LibreOffice 3.5.4.2 (Build ID:
165a79a-7059095-e13bb37-fef39a4-9503d18), German langpack installed, on MacOS X
10.6.8 German UI.
To reproduce, start LibreOffice Calc and select (from the menu) "Tools >
Customize ...", then select the "Edit" menu, then click "Add ..." and then
select the "Category" called "Edit".
I get the same results as the original reporter; I will attach a screenshot
confirming this. However, I have to point out:
1) The original reports's screenshot (attachment 62597) shows also two entries
called "Paste Special" in the list of the "Customize" window, the 1st one right
after "Undo" (a very strange place!), the 2nd one at the right position after
"Paste". I don't see the 1st "Paste special" menu item (see my screenshot), and
I think this is not a part of the problem -- it may be just a coincidence from
some playing around with the "Add command" utility.
2) There is an interesting little difference between the two "Paste Special"
entries in the list of the "Add commands" dialog window: the 2nd one has a
description which is shown below ("Inserts the contents of the clipboard into
the current file in a format that you can specify."; see my screenshot), but if
I select the 1st "Paste Special" entry, no such description appears.
3) One could question if this is a but at all. Of course, it is strange that
there are two "Paste Special" entries in the list of the "Add commands" dialog
window, but who has said that there should be a "Paste unformatted text" entry?
One could think "Maybe this is a missing feature, but not a bug."
But we can easily show that there is really a bug or at least an inconsistency
here, because this "Paste Unformatted Text" entry is missing only in Calc (and
in Impress), but it is present in Writer. See my 2nd screenshot: Writer allows
to add a special "Paste unformatted text" menu item; and my 3rd screenshot for
Impress.
Summary:
* Writer offers "Paste", "Paste Special", "Paste Unformatted Text".
* Calc offers "Paste", "Paste Special", "Paste Special" (2 times!)
* Impress offers "Paste", "Paste Special".
Given the fact that Writer offers both "Paste Special" and "Paste unformatted
text" items in the list of the "Add commands" dialog window, and no 2nd "Paste
Special" item, it seems reasonable to speek of both an inconsistency (there is
a "Paste unformatted text" in Writer, but neither in Calc nor in Impress) and
of a bug (the 2nd and useless "Paste Special" item in Calc should probably be a
"Paste unformatted text" item like in Writer).
I have changed the "Component" field of this bug report to "Spreadsheet" to
make clear that we are talking about a Calc issue.
For the missing item in Impress, we should file a separate report, probably an
enhancement request.
