Description falko.tesch 2003-09-09 14:19:01 UTC 
While copy and paste is very easy to accomplish with keyboard shortcuts (CTRL+C
and CTRL+V) paste special has no keyboard shortcut assigned to.
But many people often are in need to use other clipbaord formats than the
current one for their paste action.
A good example would be to copy text (formatted as 'Heading 1') from a Writer
document and paste it into another. But in the destination document the text
should be ordinary text (formatted as 'Textbody'). If the user now chooses
STRG+V the pasted text will stay formatted as 'Heading 1' instead of being
formatted as its new environment ('Textbody').
Instead the user will choose 'Paste speciak' to accomplish this goal. This whole
scenario is a very common one but contains awkward action to reach the 'Paste
special' dialogue.
The new keyboard shortcut for all platforms and all applications is:
SHIFT+CTRL+V
(I tested this combination in Solaris 8, Linux KDE/Gnome and Windows XP)
