I have this problem frequently on LibreOffice 3.3.3, OOO330m19 (Build:301), tag libreoffice-3.3.3.1, Ubuntu package 1:3.3.3-1ubuntu2.
When I copy snippets from web pages (in Firefox) and use Paste Special in LibreOffice, it works to begin with. Then it stops working, although I try both Ctrl-Shift-V and the "Paste Special" menu item. It seems as it stops working after every auto save, but I may have seen exceptions to that. There are different ways to get it working again: o Closing and reopening LibreOffice. o Copying some unformatted text (e.g. from gedit or terminal) and pasting it into LibreOffice with Ctrl-V. o Copying formatted text within LibreOffice and pasting it with Ctrl-V. After any of these actions copy and paste special works again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554183 Title: paste special does not work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/openoffice/+bug/554183/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
