Re: How to invoke the "paste options" icon from a toolbar?

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



Herb,

Tools>Customize>Commands>Edit>Paste

and

Tools>Customize>Commands>All Commands>EditPasteOption

are exactly the same.

When the latter was dragged to a toolbar and moused over, the tip displayed
"paste" instead of "paste options."

In other words, when I clicked on it, the copied item was **pasted for a
second time**, just like the regular paste button. What I want is to invoke
the paste options icon but not to repaste. Where can I find that command?

Thanks.

You can assign the EditPasteOption command to a shortcut key or to a
toolbar.

Hi,

When we click paste, the "paste options" icon appears and we can choose
"keep source formatting" or "match destination formatting" or ......

Is there another way (other than repasting) to invoke this icon if it
disappears when I hit enter accidentally?

I can probably use format painter or ctrl+shift+c and ctrl+shift+v if I
want
to use source formatting. But how, if I want to match destination
formatting without actually selecting the lines and keying in the font
type
and size. I am looking for a shortcut here.

Thanks.
