paste special problem

users
#1

on my opensuse 12.3 and libreoffice Version 4.0:build-305 paste special doesn't works any more.
if I select a group of cells with formulas, move in another position and I perform paste special, a "paste special" window appear with only:
source: unknown source
selection: unformatted text
and the buttons OK CANCEL HELP

the classical paste special dialog box with the classical choices like "text", "numbers", "formulas" doesn't appear.

how can I get the paste special works???
thanks, :slight_smile: ciao :slight_smile: pier

Hi :slight_smile:
tbh i was hoping that closing LO and maybe rebooting the computer
would fix it. It might also be that you need to run updates/upgrades
on your system. If that doesn't fix it then maybe reinstall a more
recent version of LibreOffice and hope that pulls in something to fix
it! Not very unixy or elegant methods! Sorry chap!

...already done.... doesn't works..., I also installed the ustable version, it remain to install from rpm from libreoffice...

If that doesn't fix it then maybe reinstall a more
recent version of LibreOffice and hope that pulls in something to fix

I will try this too...
