Description davidpbrown 2019-04-25 16:27:57 UTC

With the intent of splitting existing text into two.. (eg "testabc" in one cell to be "test" and "abc" in another cell), cut part away of the text in the edit bar Ctrl-C and paste Ctrl-V into a different cell.

The default [10pt Liberation Sans] becomes instead a cell of [5pt Noto Sans].

Seems to be a longstanding bug and I've been stumbling over this many times and it's an unnecessary irritant - workaround is to paste into the edit bar after having selected the new cell but that is a lot of extra mouse movement.

I do not fully understand how you do this.
If I cut a part away, and past it in another cell, either the first cell misses text, or the two parts separated by a space are not in one cell.

Can you please write step by step?
And provide your test document as well?

Bu no means I can reproduce have that effect.

(Mind that 6.0.7.3 is a little older. 6.1.6.3 will be released tomorrow and we also have 6.2.2 available)

v6.2 doesn't have this bug. :happy:

Sorry it is cut Ctrl-X not copy that sees this.
"testabc", cut part away of the text in the edit bar Ctrl-X and paste Ctrl-V into a different cell.

(offtopic: I seem to have two instances installed now from upgrading manually and the default is not that v6.2)

=> close
