Description Yousuf Philips (jay) (retired) 2016-09-18 18:42:47 UTC
Paste unformatted (.uno:PasteUnformatted) works in Wrtier, Impress and Draw, but not in Calc, so it would be good that it be extended to also work here.

Maybe because in calc works in a different way, showing the text import box, not pasting the unformatted text directly.
Comment 2 Yousuf Philips (jay) (retired) 2016-09-19 01:52:56 UTC
If you open up the menu portion of the paste split button in the toolbar, you will see paste unformatted text, which is where i would believe the uno command pulls the text from.
Comment 3 m_a_riosv 2016-09-19 13:44:58 UTC
Sure, but in calc if the clipboard has more than one line, then 'Text import' window comes up. It always was so, inherited from OOo.
What is a different behavior than other components.

Maybe would be nice having calc's behavior with other components, with two options on the split button instead one, for all components:
- Unformatted text. ->To past directly only the text,
- Text import. -> To get the 'Text import' window, making available to past as table.

I use Ctrl+Shft+V every day in Calc..
Ah yes, then I type U ( select Unformatted )
