Incorrect order of (clipboard) input handling, causing dimensions to end up in the next-selected object

Easel

  1. Have a value, like “25” in the clipboard buffer.
  2. Have two items on the canvas.
  3. Change the width by pasting into the width field,
  4. Paste the same value into the height field (at this moment the width is applied to the object on the canvas),
  5. Select the other object.

The value is now applied to the newly selected object, rather than the intented one.

After you paste into the height field, re-select the width field of the same object (that you already pasted into).

Not saying this isn’t a “bug”, but your dimensions will end up where you want them.

I can confirm this behavior, and I’ve opened an issue in our issue tracking system.
