Re: Copy from Text and Paste-Overlay

All,

Thanks! Assigning Alt-V to the pasteOverlay seems to work great!

I have to make sure I copy a "block" of text (i.e. with Lpex viewer on a text file or Notepad++)...

Thanks again!

Greg

Yes there is - there is a predefined action called pasteOverlay.

I don't have RDi to hand ( on my phone ) but I think it's User Key actions.
Just choose action pasteOverlay and assign your shortcut key ( I think I used a-v for Alt+v )

Regards
Craig

I've went back to a discussion I started over a year ago. Now I need
to do this again. In the amount of time I have wasted attempting to
do this, I could have just re-typed the 42 lines of data.

I tried copying from Excel, Notepad, even a text file in RSE, then
pasting using ALT-Z.

I'm sorry, but simply copy and paste should not be this difficult. :(
