In Calc, in Tools > Customize... > Keyboard tab > Category list > Edit, in the Function list, there is an entry "Paste Only Value". About "Paste Only Value," it has been said [1]: > Paste Only Value equates to selecting Numbers in the Paste Special... dialog, > which is not very clear to me either. I think a value can be either a string or > a number. This was illustrated in [2], in which the column "Value/Number," rows "UNO function," shows the results of this "Paste Only Value" keybinding. Numbers are pasted, but strings and dates are not. Can rewording "Paste Only Value" to "Paste Only Numbers", for consistency, be considered?

asking for ux input here, if it's agreed to do this change I'll do it
UX: For you! Component -> ux-advise Status -> NEW
Another argument for renaming is that the paste special dialog talks about numbers and not values. So yes, please rename. EASYHACK, NEEDINFO for the additional infos.
Missing keywords: difficulty<foo>, topicUI Missing codepointers Please add these, or remove easyHack keyword.
Changing status: NEEDINFO -> NEW Adding keyword 'needsDevEval' [ninjaedit]

I have make the change, but I need to change the name of function ".uno:PasteOnlyValue" into ".uno:PasteOnlyNumbers" too? <node oor:name=".uno:PasteOnlyValue" oor:op="replace"> <prop oor:name="Label" oor:type="xs:string"> <value xml:lang="en-US">Paste Only Numbers</value> searching ".uno:PasteOnlyValue" into opengrok I have find only other 2 references: 1) /core/sc/uiconfig/scalc/popupmenu/cell.xml 18 <menu:menuitem menu:id=".uno:PasteOnlyValue"/> 2) /core/sc/uiconfig/scalc/menubar/menubar.xml 87 <menu:menuitem menu:id=".uno:PasteOnlyValue"/>
