Open a dialog asking what to do. 2 and 4 are fine if I do not imagine them wrongly I want the pasted material to look exactly like the copied material. Any deviation would be unacceptable. It's by definition not copying if what you paste looks not like what copy -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
