I can also copy information from third party softwaredocuments such as a web browser into LibreOffice writer document - but only if that information is the first and only thing that goes into clipboard.

Once I copy from a Writer document then any subsequent copy from a third party documentsoftware will not paste (even using paste special options) - it keeps pasting the former information from LibreOffice documents.

I have to close down all LibreOffice docs and re-open them to clear the clipboard so I can copy and paste from a third party docsoftware.

Is this a glitch or am I missing something Tried going through the help and wiki sites but could not find anything specific to this issue Please note that I do not have this problem running LibreOffice on a Ubuntu laptop.

The fix that worked for me was to select an empty space or line within Writer, and copy and paste it in the document.

On Document A I can do a CTL -A, CTL -C; followed by a CTL -A, CTL -V, on document B; to create a mirror document.

The problem lies with copying and pasting individual words; or groups of words.

I used to SIMPLY double-left-click; highlight; and then copy a word in document A; followed by double-left-clicking; and highlighting the target word in document B; followed by a paste command.

NOW if I double-left-click the word BIG in document A; and then do a CTL -C; followed by double-left-clicking the word SMALL in document B; followed by a CTL -V; the word SMALL quickly disappears, and then reappears.

An ordinary copy and paste will work if I double-left-click; highlight; and then copy a word in document A; followed by positioning the cursor before the target word, in Document B; with a SINGLE left click; being careful not to highlight it with the click; and then do a paste command; followed by a deletion of the old word.

A WORK-AROUND I found for copy, cut, and paste is to position the cursor before BIG, in Document A; with a SINGLE left click; being careful not to highlight it with the click; and while HOLDING the left button down, highlight the word BIG.

Then I positioned the cursor before the word SMALL, in Document B; with a SINGLE left click; being careful not to highlight it with the click; and while HOLDING the left button down, highlighted the word SMALL.

After extensive Google searches, I believe that this has something to do with what had control of the clipboard last.

NOW, if I do a cut; and a CTL -F; I lose what was in the cut; and paste only what I searched for with CTL -f.

Different results occur after highlighting an entire document with CTL -A; and highlighting a word, or group of words, with a double-click.

A lot of possible causes and tests have been examined in bug tdf62196.

I would encourage all those experiencing this issue to carefully read through that report and see if they can add anything constructive i.e., not just another me too type comment.
