Past as Plain text request

Post by FireBrand2026 »

Could Past as plain text be set as the default and past as formatted text be the context menu option? At least until the past as formatted is fixed it's been pretty broken for quite a few versions now.

Hello,

which module do you mean exactly, Notes? Please also confirm version number you are using.

Yes notes or at least that's where I notice it since that's where I spend 99.9% of my time may happen elsewhere.

7.52 Pro

I think the pasting issues with rich text started around version 7x seems like there's been a couple of threads here that's brought it up.

We have no intention changing the default. We rather would work on fixing the issues with pasting the rich-text. I have not seen any recent threads that raise concerns regarding 7.5+ version.

As far as I can tell all the past complaints are still valid, I haven't noticed any improvements in rich text pasting myself.

I have to use plain text for everything since the normal paste seems to always break something. (Honesty I'd totally +1 plain text being the default it would save me a lot time at this point.)

I think for most of us we stopped posting complains about rich text pasting not working since nothing ever got fixed. XD

I'll be a bit more helpful.

Attached is a quick copy and past of my above comment.

The first attachment is what it looks like in Writer.
