I'd like it because currently, i'd have to make a seperate blueprint, or edit the current one, just to paste it at an offset.

What key? Shift is already taken. CTRL has been talked about for using as “overwrite” or update. ALT is used for the alternative view.

I can think of only one button for such an important task.
Or yeknow...combining ctrl with shift or something. The default button is hardly the most important question here.

or maybe some kind of a shortcut for toggling between the 2 modes? I don't exactly know which key combination would be the best here.

Emacs fan out there ?

Ya, not important. But I think there are so many things others might want to change before pasting, that this functionality should be part of that.

What I want is this workflow: I have any kind of blueprint in my hand. Now I want to change anything temporarily in it before really pasting.
