--- Comment #4 from Tex2002ans <[email protected]> ---
> It works if you just use 'paste'.

Yes.

Normal "Paste" (Ctrl+V) transfers text from the 3x3 grid correctly.

But "Paste as Unformatted Text" (Ctrl+Alt+Shift+V) shoves everything into a
single cell.

I'd expect it to redistribute the plaintext within a 3x3 table too.

When reporting this bug, I was trying to separate out multiple separate issues,
but it may make sense if I explain the ultimate goal.

Here's the use-case:

Goal 1. Transfer a table's information into Writer WITHOUT all the Calc
formatting crud.

Goal 2. Pasted 3x3 table follows all Writer's formatting instead.

The way it currently stands:

- Ctrl+V transfers the 3x3 text correctly.
--- But also carries over all the Calc formatting.
--- (In this case: COLORS.)
- Ctrl+Alt+Shift+V shoves all plaintext into a single cell.

But what was expected is:

- Ctrl+Alt+Shift+V distributes plaintext into 3x3 table.
--- Follows Writer formatting.
--- (In this case: Bold/Italics/Alignment.)

> Why do you say it's a regression? does it work with an older version ?

I tested in 7.1:

Version: 7.1.8.1 (x64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: e1f30c802c3269a1d052614453f260e49458c82c
CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19044; UI render: Skia/Vulkan; VCL: win
Locale: en-US (en_US); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

and it acts the same as 7.3, so I wrongly used the word "regression".

I meant to say "potentially related"... since that bug #37223 also dealt with
"everything pasting into a single cell".

* * *

Anyway, I've run across some other oddities while testing this.

(I'm able to get Calc's colors to appear + not appear depending on the
order/location of me copying/pasting.)

I wasn't sure to shove those in here OR treat them as separate bugs.
