Paste text into a document but keep the wdesk formatting - Paste Values

Be om demo
Forbundet med Formatting Translations Documents

Surprised that in the Wdesk document you can't paste values into text or "paste match formatting" is maybe another way of saying it. It's especially painful on implementation of Wdesk and updating the new filings that you've already been working on. Maybe there's a simple trick that I'm not aware of though? 

Thanks as always for considering!

    Hi Dallas,

    Currently, when you paste a linked value they do have an option to check or uncheck link formatting flow through, although not from the right-click menu. You'd need to navigate to the right pane to toggle that option, so I can see your point there. The option to open the right pane for Link Formatting IS available from the right click when clicking on the link, however.
     
    One thing you can use is Style Guides to apply an overall format to their documents so when you do a copy/paste into Wdesk, you can more easily apply the desired style and keep formatting, which may be quicker than changing the options from to the right panel and unchecking the link formatting box.
     
    Either way, I can see your point and I've passed this feedback along to our Product Team for consideration. Give me a holler if you have any questions on the above, or need anything else. Thanks for your contributions and have a happy Friday!

    Hi Workiva team

    One of my clients has asked if there is a way when pasting in text, to make the text take the destination (Workiva document) formatting or paste in content with no formatting. Currently pasted in content retains the styling/formatting of the source location and then has to be restyled.

    I don't know of any way and can't find anything on the Workiva Support site - any chance this ability could be added to the platform? This is different to link formatting, which I am familiar with.

    Thank you.

    Helen

    Hi Helen O'Hara, 

    I might have a solution for you here!
     
    Your client can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + V to paste content without source formatting. This will apply the destination document's formatting instead of carrying over the styling from the original source.
     
    How it works:
    - Ctrl + C — Copy the content as normal
    - Ctrl + Shift + V — Paste without source formatting (adopts the destination document's style)
     
    Let me know if this works for you!

    Hi Isabel Messore

    Ctrl + Shift + V doesn't seem to work - but Cmd + Shift + V does and is brilliant. Thank you so much for that tip - i'll pass that onto the client!

    Any chance this and the other keyboard shortcuts like insert non-breaking space can be re-added to the Keyboard Shortcuts pane under the ? - they used to be there but then they all disappeared!

    Woohoo Helen O'Hara, glad to hear it!

    I can definitely put in a request to get those two shortcuts added to the Support article here!
