If you copy one matrix of rows cols in one calc document, for example you copy from a1 to d9, now select one col, for example pushing 'j' col, and paste the matrix, the program ends with overflow, i think is treating of paste the matrix in all the cells selected. This occurs too when you select all the document and paste the matrix.

I hope you can understand what i'm trying to explain.

Thanks in advance.
David.

Hi @faraxit, thanks for reporting.

For me doesn't hang doing that.
Win10x64
Versión: 5.0.5.2 (x64) ID Builds: 55b006a02d247b5f7215fc6ea0fde844b30035b3

The copy behavior it's fine, it let's copy easily any range several times.

Could you attach a sample file where to reproduce the overflow.

Selecting the entire sheet and pasting something ~always crashed if not equipped with huge RAM. We forbid such operation now in master and 5.2.2 (or 5.2.1 already?), fixed for other similar bug reports.

Whether pasting source A1:D9 to an entire column (thus resulting in 4 columns with that block) already goes out of memory depends on available memory, with the 32-bit Windows version it may be likely.
