Can we please get an option to paste plain text without formatting in the agenda ?
Hello,
I'm very fond of Thunderbird (using it only for agenda, but a lot) and I think that a new practical function would be to be able to paste plain text (= without formatting) with the right click of the mouse into an agenda cell.
As I add a lot of events and text into the agenda cells directly from websites or documents, I'm always getting the original formatting that I don't need and can look quite bizarre.
Plain text could harmonize everything. I know I could select the text and reformat it in Thunderbird but it's adding unnecessary steps.
Thanks in advance for the consideration of my proposal, thank you developers, and have a good day !

Hello David,
Thank you for your reply. I went there and... I need to create yet another account. And I didn't feel like creating my millionth Internet account especially for another Mozilla help/suport website when I'm registered here already. So I won't do it :-)
If anyone reading my proposal thinks it's a good one, please post it there if you want, thanks!

That site and this uses the same Firefox account. So I have no idea why you would need to create an account, just sign in with the same credentials you use to access this website.

Posting requests for change in the peer support forum is technically off topic and is not allowed in support. That is why there is a request forum which is linked to from the Thunderbird help menu, just as this site is. </blockquote> If anyone reading my proposal thinks it's a good one, please post it there if you want, thanks! </blockquote>
Why post a request for that which already exists? Or do I simply not understand what an agenda is? I do not know.
See this 25 year old implementation bug for paste without formatting https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64647 and this 23 year old on that implemented the keyboard shortcut I refer to later. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=192330
Paste without formatting has been a feature of Thunderbird for a very long time. It is available on the right click menu in the message body when you are composing a new message and is also available as the shortcut Ctrl+Shift+V the shortcut for normal paste being Ctrl+V and paste as a quotation being Ctrl_Shift+O
Thew shortcuts are shown on the menu bar.
Hello Matt, thank you for your reply.
So I tried again to connect and you were right, there are 4 options to connect and I used wrongly the first one, so now I could connect with the fourth one and my usual ID/password were accepted. I had to choose a new profile name (why?) but that's OK. I posted the same suggestion there.
Thank you for your screenshot that helped me understand that we don't mean the same thing ; as I mentioned in my post, I'm refering to Thunderbird Agenda (the top left icon looking like a calendar), not the mails part that I don't use, and there's no menu item "Paste without formatting" in the Edit menu of the agenda and no such right-click option too.
But the good news it that the Ctrl+Shift+V shortcut you indicated works in an agenda cell, so I'll use that now.
NB : a future harmonizing of relevant menu items of mail and agenda parts is still a good idea :-)
