            Bug ID: 161955
           Summary: Cut and paste is broken
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.6.4.1 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Description:
When I cut and paste some cells, instead of copying the contents of the cells,
it pastes an image of the cells! WTF?

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select cells with text, numbers, and formulae
2. Type ctrl-c to copy
3. select a different cell
4. Type ctrl-v to paste

Actual Results:
An image of the original cells is pasted.

Expected Results:
The software should have pasted a copy of the original cells, whether they were
text, numbers, or formulae. The formulae should have been adjusted for row and
column references, AS IT HAD BEEN DONE FOR DECADES! I DON'T NEED OR WANT AN
IMAGE of the original cells!  It's now extra work to remember and to select the
paste-special, and then whatever the option is to do the "right thing", as it
had always done it in the past!
If someone had the brilliant idea to change the default workings of such a
common function to a function that is rarely used or wanted, then there should
be an option to have it work the way it used to.  I now have to go through and
undo the "paste image" disasters, and try to put in the "correct" references. 
Row and column sums are now broken!


Reproducible: Always
