Bug 56098 - UI: 'Paste Special - Shift Cells' options availability not logical
Status: RESOLVED FIXED · target:4.1.0

Could someone please explain why the 'Shift Down' option in the 'Paste Special' menu of Calc is greyed out when I try to cut and insert a row of cells. It is not greyed out when I try the same option with 'Copy'.
This complicates any attempt to move cell contents around in a spreadsheet. I am coming from the Excel world and the functionality I am trying to duplicate is the 'Insert Cut Cells' option.

Version 3.6.1.2 (Build ID: e29a214) on win-7
Iam using LO 3.5.6.2 on XP/SP3 and do not observe any problem with PasteSpecial/ShiftDown. I tested single cells, arrays and entire rows (single and multi). What is your LO version?

Please, can you inform what is your OS and LibreOffice version?, and can you explain step by step?. I cannot see this issue with 3.5.7.2 or 3.6.3.1 in Win7x64
