[Reproducible] with "LibreOffice 3.3.2  – WIN7  Home Premium  (64bit) German UI [OOO330m19 (Build:202 / tag 3.3.2.2)]"

Important for the problem is step 4 of report. If you simply click into cell 'C1' undo will work correctly

Copy / Paste / Undo of rows does not show a similar problem.

 paste, undo fails when clipboard is row and selection is column  
 (also LibO 3.3.2 is affected)

I'm taking this.

Comment 3 Markus Mohrhard 2011-11-07 16:51:09 UTC

After talking to Kohei, I have a look at this.

Comment 4 Markus Mohrhard 2011-11-07 17:19:32 UTC

seems that I can't reproduce it with a master build, but we might have a different problem now:

we seem to have now some logic that tries to limit the copy area to the used cells and therefore the marked paste area is filled with copies of the used cells

In 3.4 and I suspect 3.3 it only copied the content once.

@Rainer: can you confirm that this problem does no longer happen in 3-4 and master?

@Markus:
I tried again, problem still [Reproducible] with "LibreOffice Portable 3.3.3  - WIN7  Home Premium (64bit) German UI [OOO330m19 (Build:301  Tag 3.3.3.1)]" 

No longer reproducible with "LibreOffice 3.4.4RC2  - WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) German UI [OOO340m1 (Build:402)]", everything works perfect.

So I close this problem here, modified target because fixed for 3.4

New problem reproducible with Server installation of Master "LibO-dev 3.5.0 – WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) English UI [(Build ID:  d3d1481-3f8994a-2ba0a9f)]" (110909), I believe that's "Bug 40958 - EDITING: Copy row to clipboard incomplete ... or: pasting copied row to other rows, makes that data in that row is repeated until the last column".
