I am using Debian testing AMD64 architecture. Right now I am using LO 3.4.5, because it entered Debian repository, but I had 3.4.4 before. I did not notice any problems with paste special. On 3.4.5 it works fine, too.
It is possible that this issue is package-specific. How did you install LO? Is it from LO website, PPA repository or Ubuntu main repository (I believe they call main section "universe")? More details could help to track down your issue, so please mind answering following questions: 1. How does "did nothing" reveal itself? "Paste special" window never comes out, there is only one option in that window or all options product same result (formatted text)? 2. How do you try to paste special? Are you using keyboard or select Edit → Paste special form menu? 3. Is it Writer-specific or does it happen on each app in LO suite? (You said that you did not try; I think that you should before posting on the list, it would only take one minute or so and this could be valuable information.) 4. Can you reproduce the problem on default config? You can create new user and try on it. You can rename your LO profile (mv ~/.libreoffice ~/.libreoffice-old). You can run LO like that: soffice -env:UserInstallation=file:///tmp/lo-config/ (note that this is "file" protocol and absolute path, therefore three slashes) -- Best regards Mirosław Zalewski -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
