Not sure if 'the copy' shouldn't happen.. or this about using the DF of the last character..

I think what happens is that you drag onto the source by dropping in the void. And this works as expected. There are even more "funny" drag n' drop situations, eg when you drop the text onto the styles drop down... => NAB

Dragging into the void should do nothing.. simply refuse. As Word or say Atlantis word processor.

And if it should be a re-paste, do it properly. (don't change formatting)
Comment 5 Heiko Tietze 2021-02-15 15:28:47 UTC
Drag'n Drop is like cut/paste. The question is what format the target has. It has been discussed/complaint about many times, for example in bug 98381 (but there are many similar tickets).
