Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: formatting lost in referenced calc fields

Hi :)
Surely just either
Edit - Paste Special
or 
Ctrl Shift and v 
(both get same dialogue box).  Then choose "Paste formatted text (Rtf)", it's the 2nd option.  We 
usually use that route to paste unformatted so i've not tried the formatted option.  

I'm a huge fan of Rtf but it's just a description that might mean something to more people.  The 
Rtf is not quite proprietary and not quite OpenSource and is 'maintained' by MS (who don't maintain 
it or develop it anymore because they lost the court-case about it and developed .DocX to be able 
to give the same promises legally.  Oddly .DocX seems to be falling short of the same promises  in 
much the same way that Rtf did [shrugs])
Regards from
Tom :)
