Description: "Error reading from clipboard" displayed when pasting html text into a selected cell as unformatted text. But when you click on the "Ok" button of the error message window, the clipboard content is copied into an another cell... I am doing a lot of tests to try to explain the problem and I found two problems. I select the cell by selecting the current text content from end to start, the mouse cursor temporarily hovers over the left or top cell, the selection switches from "text selection" to "full cell selection" (the whole cell turns blue), I reduce the selection to one cell, then I paste, the content is copied to the hovered cell. If I select the cell by the menu table->select-cell or by triple-clicking the cell, the paste is ok. The error message seems to be displayed when "unformatted text" paste is selected or when the conversion is implicit... Sometimes I saw the copy was done to the good cell and the text add to the hovered cell. Steps to Reproduce: 1.open a blank document 2.add a table 2x2 3.In the cell at the right-top, enter "blablabla" 4.double-clic the text then copy it with ctrl-C 5.clic on another cell to unselect 6. select "blablabla" from end to start with the mouse, then extend the selection to the cell at left by moving the mouse cursor over this cell, the entire cells turn blue, then move back to the "blablabla" cell : this is the only cell selected. 7. ctrl-v Actual Results: "blablabla" is copy to the first cell of the table Expected Results: "blablabla" is copy to the selected cell at the right-top Reproducible: Sometimes User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Version: 7.0.1.2 (x64) Build ID: 7cbcfc562f6eb6708b5ff7d7397325de9e764452 CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 18363; UI render: Skia/Vulkan; VCL: win Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR); UI: en-GB Calc: CL
