Paste copied text without formatting in Google Chrome

Filed under: Google, Browsers
It's happened to pretty much everyone who uses copy and paste. You find some text on the Web, which just happens to be huge, bold, and a color you wouldn't even want on your argyle socks. You highlight, copy, and paste it into a new email message to share with a chum and the ugliness transfers.

If only there was a solution -- like some sort of hotkey combo that would automatically strip the formatting for you.

The Google Chrome team feels your pain, and they've responded. Chrome can now do exactly that. Instead of using Ctrl+V to paste, press Ctrl+Shift+V to insert your text without retaining the original formatting. Mac users have to perform the slightly more acrobatic Command+Shift+Option+V.

The new paste feature is yet another small-but-welcome addition to Chrome, and one that I'm sure I'll use frequently.Paste copied text without formatting in Google Chrome originally appeared on Download Squad on Wed, 15 Sep 2010 18:30:00 EST.
