--- Comment #20 from Yousuf Philips (jay) <philip...@hotmail.com> ---
So i asked Kohei about this on twitter and here is his response.
@kohei_yoshida: That's a feature. While that's visible, you can hit enter to
paste it. It's an indicator that you are in paste mode.
@kohei_yoshida: and hitting ESC will let you exit out of paste mode.
@jphilipz: is it possible to cancel the marque and still be in paste mode? any
link to the discussion about implementing this feature?
@kohei_yoshida: yes to the first and not that I'm aware of to the second. Why
would you want to do that?
@jphilipz: marque is distracting and unless you knew about pressing enter (not
even documented in help), users press Esc to disable it
@kohei_yoshida: Excel has the same behavior, and that's where it originally
came from. Surely not everyone thinks it's distracting?
@kohei_yoshida: My advice would be to re-design the paste range mark to make it
less distracting. You need some visual clue for paste mode.
@kohei_yoshida: And check more recent version of Excel and see if how it
behaves there for additional data point.
@jphilipz: it is understandable to have a visual clue of where the source of
the cut/copy is so you can recheck, but why after pasting?
@jphilipz: checked 2010 and it wasnt much different, so i'll check 2013 when i
get a chance.
