Pauric just shared an updated PDF sketch for the clipboard interaction. Thought I’d share it publicly. It contains some new drag and drop interactions for pasting as instance and master. Also supports different item types such as pages, objects and form elements. Awesome work! Will comment on it below.

Cut & Paste 2
Saturday, January 9th, 2010Clipboard States
Monday, February 2nd, 2009I’ve began thinking how the clipboard could operate. These layouts contain 4 different states of the clipboard depending on what has been copied into it (using CTRL+C). The four states include: multiple instances, contents of an object (form elements, text elements), instance with all states, instance with one state. The clipboard also contains multiple “paste as” options to choose from before a paste. This will have to be revised in the future to accomodate for full page copy paste as well.
Accessing the clipboard: HOLD C
Putting an item into the clipboard: select something with the mouse, press CTRL + C
Pasting: CTRL + V
