- -the {{field|Settings:Clipboard|Paste with mouse upon}} allows {{hotkey|Shift}} to be added to Swap instead of Paste
- -note: this collides with other {{hotkey|Shift}} purpose: it also extends the current selection upon click
+Adding {{hotkey|Shift}} key to the {{hotkey|Right-click}} or {{hotkey|Ctrl+Right-click}} invokes {{feature|Swap}} instead of {{feature|Paste}}. It is important to note, however, that using {{hotkey|Shift}} key with mouse also has another purpose &mdash; it extends the current selection. While extending the selection is possible upon pressing the button, invoking {{feature|Swap}} is available while releasing the button. This can take some training to master but can be worth it. Again, see chapter [[Using mouse]] and see {{feature|Swap}} and {{feature|Paste}} for details.
