Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 15000
Allow user to set default paste format
Last modified: 2008-11-05 20:24:52 UTC
Allow user to set default paste format in Writer. The paste format in the right-click drop-down menu and in the default toolbar paste button is unchangable in Options. I overcome this by changing the "Paste" button to a "Paste Special" button in the toolbar and then selecting the preferred paste format, usually "Unformatted Text". I would like to be able to set the default paste selection in the drop-down menu and toolbar, using the "Paste Special" button for alternate pasting modes. I find this necessary because I do not like the way OOo1 handles HTML data pasted into a document, but it is also good when pasting web page text into a plain Writer document, as in a school or research report.

Confirming
Adding even more settings is not the right way to go. However, the issue 17563 will work on getting a shortcut for the unformatted text pasting, which is the better way to do this. So marking this as duplicate. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 17563 ***
