Copy and Paste Shortcode to Paste Previous Items

[hseyeved]

Description of the new feature / enhancement

It would be nice to have some additional copy and paste features. Sometimes I'm in a situation where I'm copying 2 or 3 different things to a page which are in separate fields. Currently, I would open Notepad, paste the values I would like to copy on separate lines and then copy and paste each item as needed.

It would be nice if I could copy items (say up to 9) and then paste each one without having to go back and recopy as needed.

For example

• I would copy 3 pieces of separate text: first I would copy "value1", then "value2", finally "value3".
• Then I would go back to where I would like to paste these
• If I want to paste the last item I would press CTRL+V
• But if I wanted the third item I would press CTRL+V+3

Scenario when this would be used?

A possible scenario would be:

• You have 20 forms that you need to add 2 new fields to. The field label and value is the same on each form and the form has no way of creating a template so you have to create each field.
• You copy the four pieces you need to paste: Label 1, Value 1, Label 2, Value 2
• You go to each form and use the keyboard shortcuts to paste each value without having to recopy each time

Try Ctrl+C and then Win+V 😉

That's a good workaround for now but I'd prefer to have keyboard shortcuts to do the copy and paste. I find it more efficient.
