Paste box…
•In order to give the user better control over paste operations, pasting is done in a 2 step way.  Step one:  use the Mac traditional Paste command from the Edit or type Command-V.  This pastes the clipboard into the active window and allows you to move the pasted clipboard around the window using the mouse or arrow keys.  Step two:  once the desired position has be found, click on the paste box in the tool window, this will perform the paste operation last selected in the Paste Options dialog.
