    LibreOffice - Paste Special, Values?

    In Excel there is a feature - Paste Special, Values. This appears to be missing from LibreOffice. Is the feature buried elsewhere, perhaps under a different name?

    I'm simply trying to paste the results of a formula elsewhere.

    I'm using LibreOffice 3.5.4.2 on Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise)

    Re: LibreOffice - Paste Special, Values?

    If I do a Paste Special (Ctrl+Shift+V) and only select Numbers, it works for me when pasting numeric values.

    Similarly, I can select Numbers and Text to paste special mixed numeric and text values.

    I am running Libre Office Version 3.6.2.2 (Build ID: 360m1(Build:2)) on a Kubuntu Daily build.

    You can also uncheck the forumulas box when using Paste Special and leave the rest alone.

    I think this is one of the clunkiest aspects of Libre/OpenOffice Calc.
