Re: [Tuxpaint-devel] Text/Label "paste" functionality

[Mark K. <mar...@gm...>]

Hi Bill,

> [1] Mark, should we also support [Option]+[V] on macOS?

[Command]+[V] is the standard shortcut for pasting on macOS, and it seems
to work fine out-of-the-box with the latest code in the master branch!
(FYI, the [Ctrl] modifier is overwritten as the [Command] modifier on macOS
here
<https://sourceforge.net/p/tuxpaint/tuxpaint/ci/master/tree/src/macos.h#l28>
since
anywhere Linux/Windows uses Ctrl is typically where macOS uses Command
instead.)

Thanks,
Mark
