Copy-Paste or Drag-Drop selected points

When there are multiple scatter plots open, one can plot the selected points from one plot onto another plot by dragging and dropping them. The drag and drop is executed using the left mouse button. Depeding on the state of the target/destination plot one of the following things will happen:

  1. If the destination target plot is empty, the points will be plotted there verbatim and without any prompting.
  2. If the destination target plot already has some points plotted in it, then the user will be prompted as to whether he wishes to overwrite the target plot with the new points or should the new points be merged with the points already plotted in the destination plot

The same effect can also be achieved by using the copy-paste functionality provided in the Edit dropdown menu. The behavior in case of an empty destination plot is the same as explained above. However, in case the destination plot already has some points plotted in it, Paste Selected (Replace) will overwrite the existing plot with the new points while Paste Selected (Add) will merge the points with the points that were already plotted in the destination plot.
