Ctrl + Shift + V pastes without formatting on Windows
Sadly, doesn't work everywhere. Sometimes, this is still necessary.
Funny enough, I've found Microsoft apps are the most inconsistent with this functionality
Yeah this doesn’t work anywhere in Office apps
Never in my entire life have I wanted to paste with formatting into a word doc, and you always have to click the stupid little clipboard icon after you paste to undo it.
Ctrl + Alt + V
Yes and after learning of the shortcut, it actually makes me angrier when I get formatted text.
Ctrl + Win + Alt + V works everywhere I've tried it.
Linux too, at least in most applications I've tried. Some will ask you when you ctrl+shift+v if you want to paste formatted or unformatted text.
Ctrl + Shift + V should paste without formatting, but for some reason Microsoft Office software (Outlook, Word, Publisher) refuses to follow this standard.
I've been on Windows since 3.0 and only recently learned that. Use it almost every day now.
Same, I've been using PCs with Microsoft operating systems since fuckin' MS-DOS 3.2 and I only learned about it a couple years ago.
Can anyone confirm if that keeps Jira from doing that "uploading an image" thing when pasting text?
I don't think it's OS dependent.
Is there something like this for Mac users that have this stupid behavior ported over through the MS Office suite?
CMD + Shift + V
