Paste Special order, Format Tabs

users
#1

Can the Paste Special order be changed? It is now HTML, Unformated
text. I would like unformated text to be first to save time for people
inputting data.

When I click on Format to format a cell, the tab names are invisible
until I run the mouse over them, and even then the current tab is still
invisible. All else looks fine. Is this a bug, or should it be?

Dave,

Dave:

Regarding the invisible names on tabs - can you let us know what operating
system, etc. you are using and, if you are using any particular theme?

Those things can all be relevant ...

P.S. I would upvote your suggestion about Paste Special but I just always
use keystrokes as a matter of habit (Ctrl+Shift+V; u) so it doesn't bother
me that much. That should be posted as an enhancement request anyway.

Frank,

Just upgraded to Ubuntu Mate 16.10. L.O. Version: 5.2.2.2
Build ID: 1:5.2.2-0ubuntu2 CPU Threads: 2; OS Version: Linux 4.8; UI
Render: default; Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); Calc: group. The theme is
the default - no changes.

As for Ctrl+Shift+V, it is difficult to do on many keyboards. Looking
for an easier way to do this (less complaining).

Thanks,
Dave

Something like that bug : UI: Tab names unreadable in GTK3 in Ubuntu
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92776

Workaround: change the Ubuntu theme you are using for something else
like one of the Arc family.

Paste special unformatted : in Writer you have Shift+Ctrl+Alt+V (see
menu Edition)

Best regards.

I use it all the time but it's more hidden than you say.

In Writer 5.1.4.2, you have to look in Tools > Customize > Keyboard tab

JBF,

Thanks for the update. Yes, the bug reported seems to be the one I am
referring to, though it would be good to have a picture to make sure. I
do not have a Arc family of themes, and can wait until there is an
official fix. It looks like the problem is Ubuntu/GTK, not LO.

As for the Ctrl+Shift+V, it is too difficult to do on a lot of
keyboards. A better solution is desired.

Dave,
