Now I can't stop picturing a nightmare scenario of having to watch someone do their copy/paste purely from the keyboard, but using the menus via that trick, rather than using the hotkeys. Thanks for that.

I wouldn't have to paste via menu if "paste without formatting" didn't require the fingers of a pianist.

Isn’t there a ctr+shift+v equivalent?

[–] wise_pancake@lemmy.ca 2 points 8 months ago

Yes, mostly it's command instead of Ctrl

But some permutations of paste without formatting/paste values only/paste format only end up using 4 keys which is always awkward to do.

Paste Without Formatting exists on the right-click context menu almost everywhere. I don't consider context menu usage to be annoying (to observe someone using) at all, personally.

But why use mouse when keyboard works?

[–] KoboldCoterie@pawb.social 1 points 8 months ago

Personally I find CTRL+SHIFT+V rather uncomfortable to press, not to mention it requires moving your whole hand down the keyboard, whereas CTRL+V doesn't. A quick rightclick -> Paste Without Formatting is quick enough to do.
