How can I cut and paste in the formula bar within the spreadsheet? This is handy for editing for formulae.
It does not work with a mouse or Cntl C and Cntl V

context menu in the formula bar will be only in LO 6.1
for me Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V works fine in Windows:

Select cell with formula
Select text in the formula bar
push Ctrl+C and then key Esc
Select another cell
Set cursor into the formula bar
Ctrl+V and Enter

Thanks I am trying to copy and paste part of a formula. The highlighted area cannot be copied from what I can see.

I tried copy only part of formula from formula bar. It works fine.

You can copy part or all of the formula only using keyboard shortcuts. No right click menu exists.

Thanks, I’ll give it a bash!
