When I try to copy a range of cells from one sheet to another, nothing is actually pasted in the target. Steps to reproduce: - Open calc - Create a second sheet - Put random content into some cells on the first sheet - Mark the range of cells containing the content and click "copy" - Go to the second sheet - Paste content -> Nothing happens (visually, as "undo" show "insert"s but they change nothing) I'm seeing this on two computers on libreoffice-6.4.0.3-2.2.x86_64.rpm from current openSUSE Tumbleweed (20200214). I'm using LibreOffice within KDE Plasma desktop on X11/Xorg (all very current versions as this is a rolling distro), if that may have any connection. I notice that as long as I'm on sheet 1, the status line says "Selected: x rows, y columns" but that disappears when I go to sheet 2. When I immediately switch back to sheet 1, no cell range is selected any more and the dashed line for the copied area is gone as well. When trying to paste, neither pressing Enter nor the Paste icon works. Interestingly, copying within a single sheet works correctly. FWIW, that the copied content is not reflected in the clipboard is something I noticed as well but that's bug 125534 and independent of this new issue. This process of copying between sheets has worked in previous releases (unfortunately I don't know when this started for me exactly, but I'm pretty sure it worked just a few weeks ago, but unsure what version change was in between).
Oh, FWIW, I found that as a work-around, I can actually user drag&drop to copy the cell range to the other sheet.

(In reply to Xisco Faulí from comment #3) > Please attach a sample document, as this > makes it easier for us to verify the bug. Sorry, it looks like I forgot in my STR the step between "Open calc" and "Create a second sheet". That one is "Create a NEW DOCUMENT". So, that means, no sample document needed to reproduce for me at least, on those two Linux machines. That said, it also happens to me with any other document, but even for an empty new one. As comment #2 says, it seems to work on Windows (which is good in general, bad for reproducing my issue), so this issue may be either Linux-only or (hopefully not, but possibly) even specific to the openSUSE build.
[Automated Action] NeedInfo-To-Unconfirmed
No problem for me with a nearly identical environment. Just a thought: do you have Klipper running: https://userbase.kde.org/Klipper ? I deactivated it because it was messing with the clipboard in surprising ways.

I have the standard KDE Plasma clipboard running (no idea if it's still called "Klipper" or not, and it's not "messing" with anything else for me as you claim. Also, I find it rather strange if I would need to disable the standard clipboard of the second largest Linux desktop environment to get a detail of copying inside LibreOffice working. Note that copying between different documents works fine, but between sheets does not.

As the "solution" to a bug of copying WITHIN LibreOffice seems to be "disable features of your desktop environment" I have learned my lesson and will just ignore this bug reporting system in the future as it obviously doesn't help to report bugs anyhow.

You seem to misunderstand. On 2020-05-09, I asked you to try disabling KDE Plasma's clipboard application with the intention of learning if this has any effect on what you were seeing. You never replied and thus the report was closed automatically after 7 months.
FWIW, disabling Klipper temporarily worked but it's no solution, it's a debugging data point (I felt you proposed it as a potential solution - sorry if I took that the wrong way). And actually, I made using the drag&drop workaround my habit now, so I don't actually see the issue in daily use (and I just had to do consciously go in and try the normal c&p way again to confirm the bug still happens with LO 7.0.3.1), even if my habits have become a bit more cumbersome.
Now I tried on KDE Plasma with Klipper activated and the steps from the description work fine. Arch Linux 64-bit Version: 7.0.4.2 Build ID: 00(Build:2) CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.9; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 Locale: fi-FI (fi_FI.UTF-8); UI: en-US 7.0.4-2 Calc: threaded
Hello Robert, A new major release of LibreOffice is available since this bug was reported. Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ? I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version.
Unfortunately, in LO 7.1.0.3 as provided by openSUSE Tumbleweed, I still can reproduce the issue just as before (in combination with Plasma 5.21.0). Copying from one LO Calc document/window to the other works with normal copy&paste, copying between different sheets in a single document does not work that way and is only possible via drag&drop (with modifier key).
You could ask, if folks from the openSUSE user community can reproduce it.
no repro in Version: 7.1.5.2 (x64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 85f04e9f809797b8199d13c421bd8a2b025d52b5 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 17763; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: en-US (en_US); UI: en-US Calc: CL

Nothing at all is pasted. This has bugged me a lot in prev versions so I was hoping a direct install would fix it but it doesn't openSUSE Leap 15.3 / (x86_64) Installed Memory 8G KDE 5.76.0 Plasma 5.18.6 Qt: 5.12.7
I think your best bet is to get openSUSE developers involved.
Can you explain? This was not installed by Yast, but as a direct download from libroffice and using the install script from the tarball to install locally in my home directory
(In reply to Eric from comment #21) > Can you explain? This was not installed by Yast, but as a direct download > from libroffice and using the install script from the tarball to install > locally in my home directory I can't except that there seems to be something in the openSUSE KDE distro that brings this about. As I said in an earlier comment, Arch Linux with KDE does not exhibit this even with Klipper active.
I don't reproduce with openSUSE Tumbleweed X11. KDE Plasma 5.25.5 KDE Frameworks 5.97.0 Qt: 5.15.5 LO 7.4.1.1 You may try with LO user profile reset i.e. LO user folder rename. If that doesn't help, please report to openSuse that packages LO for the distro. If you do, please write a result here. I don't see a purpose of keeping this open, as it's hardly a problem that can be fixed in LO.
After updating TW this went away so, yes, it should be closed Thanks
