          Priority: medium
            Bug ID: 62674
          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: Paste Special -> Formatted Text needs to be a bit
                    smarter
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Windows (All)
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 4.0.1.2 release
         Component: Writer
           Product: LibreOffice

When copying and pasting special from Calc into Writer - if one chooses
"Formatted text[RTF]" as Paste Special option - a table is created in the
Writer document. That is good.

However, if one copies a number of cells from Calc, then selects the same
number of cells in an existing Writer table, and does a Paste Special ->
Formatted Text[RTF] - the data is not pasted correctly across all selected
cells - but rather a new table is created in the first cell of the selection.
When copying from the spreadsheet program to the text processing program of
Another Office Suite, if the same number of cells is selected at both ends
(provided they are lined up in the same configuration rows/columns wise) - the
paste process is smart enough and it fills them up correctly in the table of
the text processing document.

This feature is used and relied on quite heavily in certain work environments -
and its absence creates a lot of additional effort in the workflow. It would
save a lot of users significant amounts of time if it can be implemented.
