[jira] [Updated] (PIVOT-821) Add support for Shift-Ins to do a Paste on Windows

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-821?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Roger Whitcomb updated PIVOT-821:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: insert.patch

The "insert.patch" implements Shift-INS functionality to do a paste in TextInput, TextArea and TextPane.  

I considered doing it for WIndows only, but considering that Linux has similar keyboard conventions to Windows and that the INSERT key is singularly missing (and therefore hard to press) on new Macs, it seemed reasonable to make this key combination work regardless of platform.

> Standard Windows OS conventions allow Shift-INS to do a Paste operation (as well as Ctrl-V).  Windows users expect to be able to use this keyboard shortcut and consider it a bug if it does not work.
