I can't reproduce the issue. Version: 7.4.2.3 (x64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 382eef1f22670f7f4118c8c2dd222ec7ad009daf CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19045; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: es-ES (es_ES); UI: en-US Calc: CL Please test in safe mode, Menu/Help/Restart in Safe Mode Hi, same problem here, but not only on Calc, everywhere in LibO. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS Release: 22.04 Codename: jammy Operating System: Kubuntu 22.04 KDE Plasma Version: 5.25.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.98.0 Qt Version: 5.15.3 Version: 7.4.1.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 3c58a8f3a960df8bc8fd77b461821e42c061c5f0 CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.18; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 (cairo+wayland) Locale: it-IT (it_IT.UTF-8); UI: en-US Steps to Reproduce: 1. open a file in LibO (Calc or Writer or Impress or ...) 2. highlight text from whatever you want and copy it with ctrl-c. Try first: a) clean text (for example with Notepad -Win- or Kate/Vim -Linux-) and after b) a website (for example this bugzilla site in the top of page "Bug 151864 - Paste Special [No selection possible] when copying text from a web browser (edit)") 3a. go to LibO and past with "ctrl-shift-v" the clean text. The "paste special" dialog is shown with only the choice "unformatted text" 3a. go to LibO and past with "ctrl-shift-v" the web site text. The "paste special" dialog is shown with two choices "HTML and unformatted text". 4. on both case, press "OK" to past and a new dialog is shown with "Requested clipboard format is not available." and no text is pasted. The only possibility to past a text is to: 5. past with ctrl-v (if the text is formatted, LibO receive the format with "url, bold, ..."), and if you want to clean up the text format, you have to: 6. copy another time the same text, but within LibO 7. paste special "ctrl-shift-v" and now the "paste special" dialog show you a very complete dialog with "libo text document, rtf, html, unformatted text, dde link". 8. now the "ok" functions works and you can choose whatever format you want At the end, I think that from 7.4 version LibO can read only its own clipboard format into the "special paste" dialog Set to NEW per the previous comment, but it would be interesting to hear if Ryan and Michele still experience this with 7.5. Ryan: Please copy and paste here the contents of your Help - About (LibreOffice - About on macOS) by clicking the copy button. This allows us to know more about your system.

Hi Buovjaga, yes, just tried and the behaviour (and the error) is the same Bye Some additional info: This bug happens if the web browser is opened before calc is opened. It does not happen if calc is opened before the web browser is opened.

It > does not happen if calc is opened before the web browser is opened. That's useful info but please see comment 3 for version information. Its important to know which OS and desktop environment your are using, especially for clipboard issues.
