Paste Without Formatting won't work safari
I am able to use the "Paste Without Formatting" option in every browser except Safari. In Safari, neither the keyboard shortcut (Shift + Cmd + V) or menu>paste without formatting works. When I right-click, the option to paste (Cmd + V) is there, but paste without formatting is greyed out, along with several other options. Is this something that can be fixed, or is this just safari?
Solution 1:
Try Cmd + Option + Shift + V its working for me
Solution 2:
This happens because Safari and Google Doc Shortcuts are clashing with one another. We cannot change Google Doc Shortcuts but we can change Safaris.
-
Just go to system preferences, then select keyboard, go to shortcuts then go to app shortcuts on the left hand side.
-
Once you've done that, click the plus button at the bottom and it should open another window, in that window, change the Application from all apps to safari, then add the following text: Paste and Match Style in the menu Title. (I am taking this command from when you click edit on Safari in the top menu.
-
Enter the shortcut as Command Shift V
