In Calc, how can I duplicate the formatting of one sheet into a new sheet?

In Calc, how can I duplicate the formatting of one sheet into a new sheet? I have searched but I can not find this-- if it is already explained somewhere, I would very much appreciate being told how to find it.

Thank you!

  1. The template sheet: Select All (Ctrl+A by default)
  2. Copy (Ctrl+C by default)
  3. Go to the new sheet and select cell A1.
  4. Paste Special… (ShiftCtrl+V by default) and choose ONLY Formats there.

Alternative:
Ordinary Paste, then DEL. The DEL only removes contents, not formats.
This way you also can handle sheets created with Ctrl+DragMouse at the Tab.

Glad to find that you not had any problems for 3 years. :wink:
