Why? What's the use case? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #1) > Why? What's the use case? well, sometimes I do need constantly copy and paste some contents. What do you mean exactly? Can you provide a specific example? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #3) > What do you mean exactly? Can you provide a specific example? Such as, collect messages, or summarize main points from a ppt or ebooks, or paste several screenshots in docs, or fill in forms sometimes. But in those cases, you need to copy the items one at a time. That being the case, wouldn't it be just as fast to add a paste after the copy? For form filling, presumably you would like a different copid piece of text to go in a different field, right? The system couldn't do that automatically.

The system couldn't do that automatically. Normally I need copy items from different places and paste it at one time will be more efficient. So do paste screenshots from clipboard Thanks for the info. I think that we won't be able to implement this, sorry. It is quite a niche use case, and the time savings for this use case would only be on the order of a few seconds compared to already-present options. Typically when we improve support for a niche use case, the time savings must be enormous to justify it, or else it must not be possible at all with existing functionality. Neither are the case here. Thanks for your understanding. :) |
