Description (last modified by martinkou) (diff)

The problem reported in bug #1214941 "copying and pasting from word doesn't force it as plain text, even though I have that option turned on"

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1214941&group_id=75348&atid=543653

was only patched for CTRL+V paste method.

The problem still happens if you paste using "Edit menu --> Paste", if you paste dragging from another window or if you paste using COMMAND+V (in Mac) or MAYS+INS (in Linux).

The "Edit menu" and dragging ways issues will be really hard to fix. Let's investigate it better.

I can confirm this bug partially.

Dragging text from enables "Paste as Plain Text" window. CTRL+V as said above also enables the window.

Only pasting using Edit Menu+Paste doesn't force paste as plain text.

I'm having the same problem as well. Depending on how you do it, some paste operations bypass the ForcePasteAsText config. Firefox on Windows-- Menu: Edit > Paste Firefox on Mac-- Menu Paste and Command + V

I know this will be difficult to fix but consistent behavior for things like pasting is very important for most applications built with FCK.
