Example file from Excel with pasted multiple lines text.

Text with a manual line break looks different in Excel and Calc, when we copy and paste (Paste Values) the text.

Steps to reproduce:

    1. Create a new spreadsheet in Microsoft Excel 2010.
    2. Write something in a cell and insert a line break (Alt+Enter).
    3. Copy the contents of the cell.
    4. Click the other cell.
    5. On the Home tab, in the Clipboard group, click Paste.
    6. Under Paste Values, click Values.
    7. Save the file as XLSX.
    8. Open the same file in LibreOffice Calc.

Actual results:
Microsoft Excel shows the complete contents of the pasted cell, but LibreOffice Calc shows the second line of the contents of the pasted cell.

Expected results:
LibreOffice Calc should show the complete contents of the pasted cell.

Dear Gabor Kelemen (allotropia),

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
 
If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword


Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa

Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Warm Regards,
QA Team
