Understanding Displace

Displace is like Paste.

The difference is – instead of copying content from the clipboard, it exchanges content with the clipboard.

  • Before Displace
Clipboard Target
"Bird" "Fish"
  • After Displace
Clipboard Target
"Fish" "Bird"

As a comparison

  • Before Paste
Clipboard Target
"Bird" "Fish"
  • After Paste
Clipboard Target
"Bird" "Bird"
