--- Comment #4 from Heiko Tietze <[email protected]> --- We have two functions. First the text import, where you do paste special (shift+ctrl+insert) and either insert unformatted text or use the text import dialog. This dialog provides some options to structure the content for the spreadsheet, ie. separate per comma, semicolon etc. The other workflow is the internal copy/paste procedure that has structured data and allows to transpose. Mixing the two makes no sense, as Ady commented. The actual request is WONTFIX. However, the context menu should give a clear feedback and disable the commands that are not available. Plus, if you copy some cells in the spreadsheet this is indicated with a small animation- but after copying something in the browser the ants keep marching (yet it cannot be pasted). Seems to be filed with bug 51729. We should change the subject into "Disable paste commands that don't apply in context", or the like. If you frequently access data and want to manipulate it before inserting into the spreadsheet the "Data Provider" might be of help to you. For some reason it is hidden and you need to run Tools > Customize in order to show the command on the toolbar, for example. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
