Paste And Move Objects

[NicePDFAlways]

Request: Can you make it when copy/pasting objects (Text box, image etc.) it will paste at the current mouse point position please.
The cursor will be the top left corner of the object. Currently it pastes in a random location and I have to move it.

Also could you make dragging to move an object allow auto scrolling of the page. Currently the scroll won't move.
So since it pastes in a random spot, when I've moved something from one page to another I have to scroll to find what I've pasted then drag it to where I want it, but frog jump the dragging multiple times to cross it to another part of the page, instead of just hold it near the edge and it will scroll as I hold. This is no good.

And when dragging something could holding a modifier key (Ctrl etc.) make the possible placed location temporarily snap to the grid please, even if the grid isn't currently visible.

Hello, NicePDFAlways

The defualt handling for pasting is not random, but uses the original location of the selected content. You can enable this option to change that to paste at mouse position:

Dragging to the edges of the page most certainly should already autoscroll, but in testing it seems that for some objects this is not working as intended. The dev team has been informed and we should hopefully be seeing a fix for that in the future. I am very sorry for the inconvenience in the meantime.

Finally regarding the snapping suggestion... I cannot promise this one will be implemented, but I will pass it on for consideration as a new feature request.

Kind regards,

Hello all,

Regarding comments and links, I have previously reported on the following topic.

• When a comment is dragged outside of screen, the page scrolls automatically or not depending on the type of comment

Just for your reference.

Hello, rakunavi

Thank you for that, indeed it was, and It seems that it ended up buried in a mountain of other reports at the time... Very sorry for that. I have linked the two issues now.
