Microsoft is adding a “Paste text only” shortcut to Word for Windows and Mac
Microsoft has added a “Paste Text Only” shortcut to Word that allows users to paste plain text, available for Windows and Mac.
“You may be familiar with this keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + V (Cmd + Shift + V on Mac) — also called “keep text only” or “paste plain text” — because it’s popular in other apps like Microsoft Teams, Word. the web, Google and Gmail. Whatever you call it, the Paste Text Only shortcut is now available in Word for Windows and Word for Mac,” Microsoft said in a blog post.
To check how this shortcut works, users need to select a text area in their current document or another document and then place the cursor in their Word document where they want the text to appear.
Then press Ctrl + Shift + V (Cmd + Shift + V on Mac) – users will now notice how the pasted content matches the formatting of the adjacent text instead of keeping its original font size, color, etc.
Meanwhile, Microsoft has announced that it is testing an improved volume mixer in Windows 11’s Quick Settings, which will allow users to quickly adjust the sound.
This new feature will be rolled out to the latest “Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25309 in the Dev Channel,” the tech giant said.
