Copy paste not working for 'Add Item by Identifier'

c7nature
I am having trouble doing a simple copy/paste with the 'Add Item by Identifier' I can manually type in the number and data is retrieved fine. But when I attempt copy/paste...well the paste function is not working. Have tried over and over. Don't understand why not working. Paste function on computer works everywhere else, so don't think its a computer glitch.

Any ideas for fixing this oddity? It's very annoying to type in each number.

    we're aware that right-click --> paste is broken, but the keyboard shortcut, i.e. ctrl+v (cmd+v on Mac) should work

    Don't have a Mac, will this still work? Is this bug being fixed?

    Ctrl-v, as adamsmith said, on Windows and Linux. That's the standard OS-wide shortcut for pasting from the clipboard, and it will work here.

    (And I believe this is a Mozilla bug. If so, we're not really in control of when it gets fixed.)

    Thank you all! That works.

    I am also facing this problem - but the paste function does not work only when I am using mouse (right-mouse-click > Paste). When using keyboard shortcut CTRL+V, it works. However, they should fix it, it's annoying.
