My workflow includes a lot of copy and pasting of texts into documents. Alas, the formatting often comes with and I have to adjust and rearrange. You can paste without formatting, but that’s not necessarily what I want. More often, I want paste and match style.
Ally MacDonald points out a simple way Mac users can make pasting without formatting the default:
Want to improve your quality of life in 5 seconds?
1. Go to System Preferences
2. Keyboard
3. App Shortcuts
4. All Applications –> add “Paste and Match Style” ⌘V
Done.
This change re-maps the default “Paste” keyboard shortcut to paste and match style.
What a timesaver.
