There is something seriously wrong with how moderators call everything an
"enhancement."  Yes, fixing a bug is definitely an enhancement.  This bug is a
bug.  Please fix it.  Copying a comment should simply copy a comment, and not
clobber other stuff.  The comment is orthogonal to the contents of the cell. 
Just because that is what it does now does not make it rational or right, no
matter how many warnings the user is given.

Is this is like the intentional bug I reported in which copying a range
containing values, dates, text and formulas and pasting only numbers, text or
dates over itself cleared all the cells that did not contain the selected
content type? I couldn't think of and no-one could give me a valid use for such
a behavior. Looking back over almost 30 years of using spreadsheets for
engineering and financial work, I cannot think of a single use for a copy
comment option that would also change or clear the contents of the destination
cell. Why check only Paste Comments, unless that's all you want to paste?

If a cell comment is part of the cell contents, then there is no sense in
having paste content (value or formula) and paste comment as separate options
of a paste function. Either the option has a bug because it doesn't do what
it's supposed to do (copy only the comment), or the option is misnamed (it
doesn't just copy the comment) and should be renamed (copy comment and clear
contents) or removed as redundant.

If the feature is renamed Copy Comment  Clear Contents, I might someday
submit a request to add Copy Comment...after MOD() and DATE() are fixed. Until
then, I can't risk using Libre-Office Calc for real computing (and since I
discovered those problems, I have experienced the program randomly closing
without warning).

Hi, the comment is part of the cell content, so it works as expected and you
even have a message indicating that the content of the target cells will be
overwritten. From what I understand, you would like to be able to past the
comment only without the cell content. Could you open an enhancement describing
the comportment that you would like to see? Thanks! I'm closing this one -
Sophie

--- Comment #2 from Timur gti...@gmail.com ---
Seems to work as designed:
https://help.libreoffice.org/Common/Paste_Special#When_in_Calc:_Operations
The comment is pasted to the other 2 cells, and the content of the other two
cells remain unchanged with the operation Add (both when the result cell
contains formula or not).

I can get the expected results if I check comments and select the operation
Add, but if the cells contained formulas, that would not get the desired
result.
