[Issue 125646] New: Paste Special in context menu is sometimes missing when trying to paste web contents.

https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=125646

          Issue ID: 125646
        Issue Type: DEFECT
           Summary: Paste Special in context menu is sometimes missing
                    when trying to paste web contents.
           Product: Calc
           Version: 4.1.1
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux32
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: editing
          Assignee: issues@openoffice.apache.org
          Reporter: gurus.knugum@gmail.com

Usually it works like expected, here's an example:
Highlight a cell in a Google spreadsheet document in Google Chrome (or other
browser, I think I got the same result with Opera, for instance).
Ctrl+c.
Right click a cell in Apache OpenOffice spreadsheet.
Select Paste Special.
Select Unformatted text.
Done.

However, now and then Paste Special is missing.
If I restart Apache OpenOffice Calc, Paste Special is usually back again.

Unfortunately I could never figure out under which circumstances this
misbehaviour happens. It happens maybe once every fifth time or so in average.

You set "PC Linux32". Could you specify your distro?

I usually post to the mailing list, but this time I didn't. Sorry. I guess you
could remove this bug then.

Try to reset your profile.

You should post your problem on our end-user forum:
https://forum.openoffice.org
If other users can confirm that you find a problem located in the
application, so reproducible bug report is welcome.

This issue is still occurring on AOO 4.1.0 (Ubuntu 14.04 x86_64);

1. Open Calc
2. Open html document in Firefox
3. Copy html text (eg text within an html table cell)
4. Paste Special fails in Calc (both ctrl-shift-v and menu option)
5. Open html document in Chromium
6. Copy html text (eg text within an html table cell)
7. Paste Special now works in Calc (both ctrl-shift-v and menu option)
8. Switch back to Firefox
9. Copy html text (eg text within an html table cell)
10. Paste Special now works in Calc (both ctrl-shift-v and menu option)

Yes, 32-bit for sure. I tried to install the 64-bit Ubuntu a few years ago but
it failed. The message was that I was trying to install a 64-bit operating
system on a 32-bit computer. I bought the computer in 2007 with Ubuntu 7.04
pre-installed.

Are you sure to be in 32bit?

If this is an issue on Linux X64, maybe aa new issue should be opened.

I'm on Linux-32 and copied a row from the following html page --

http://cypress.csuchico.edu/APO/Webdocs/Schedule/CMS/GEClassSchedule_Pathways.asp?term=2152#WRIT

into a row in Calc using Paste Special with the html formatting option. No
issues.

In other words, step 4 from Comment 8 works for me.

I'm not sure if this was an issue specifically related to the use of Google
spreadsheet or not.
