JR38894: KEYBOARD SHORTCUT CTRL + C AND CTRL + V TO COPY AND PASTE JUST CELL VALUE DOES NOT WORK

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When cutting and pasting on the multi-edit screen in new UI, if
  you press keyboard shortcut Ctrl + c on one cell from one row
  (row id 1), and then press Ctrl + v in one cell on another row
  (row id 2) the full row is copied from row 1 to row 2 as opposed
  to the just the cell value.
  
  Steps to reproduce:
  
  1. Create a generic catalog spec with the following attributes
  
     ID (PK)
     Attribute1 (String)
     Attribute2 (String)
  
  2. Create a catalog with this spec
  
  3. Create 2 items in this catalog
  
     ID=Item1
     Attribute1=Test1
     Attribute2=Test1
  
     ID=Item2
     Attribute1=Test2
     Attribute2=Test2
  
  4. Bring up multiple items in multi-edit page.
  
  5. Select Attribute1 cell on Item1 and use keyboard shortcut
  [Ctrl]+[C] to make a copy, then move mouse to Attribute1 cell on
  Item2 and press [Ctrl]+[V]. The result is that the entire rows
  of Item1 is copied to Item2 opposed to just the selected cell
  value.
  

Local fix

• Use mouse right click menu to do copy and paste selected cell
  value
