            Bug ID: 109011
           Summary: LibreCalc can't paste plain text from Excel
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.3.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: ddascalescu+freedesktop at gmail.com

Description:
It's a little mind-boggling to me that this bug hasn't been filed yet, but I
couldn't find it, so here it is.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a new Excel spreadsheet
2. Type 1, Enter, 2, Enter, 3, Enter
3. Copy those three cells to the clipboard
4. Ensure you can paste them in a regular text editor
5. Create a new Calc spreadsheet
6. Attempt to paste the cells *as text*. Paste Only -> Text / Number / Formula
do nothing.


Actual Results:  
Paste, and notice you've pasted an image.

Expected Results:
Text


Reproducible: Always

User Profile Reset: No - I've just installed LibreOffice.

Additional Info:
This is critical in migrating from Excel, because simply importing XLSM files
brings a lot of cruft that slows down the sheet by an order of magnitude - See
bug 100709.
