GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 321013
[Enter] key and OK button work differently in Paste Special dialog
Last modified: 2005-11-14 05:42:42 UTC
I enter =ROW() in A1:A6. I select A1:A6 and copy it, either using [Ctrl]+C or Edit > Copy, then I run the menu command Edit > Paste Special, select As Value for Paste type, then press [Enter] rather than click on the OK button, the formulas in A1:A6 remain as-is. I have to click on the OK button in the Paste Special dialog to have the formulas replaced by their values.
Agreed. The default should be ok, not cancel. Looks like an old typo. Patch will be in 1.6.1
