Comment 6 for bug 1430689

Actually, I just noticed it already says "Nothing on the clipboard" when "from clipboard" shape is selected and clipboard is empty. I didn't link that to color behaviour...

I still don't quite grasp the logic however. When I have "Last used style" active and I do have a path on the clipboard, I still find the behavior unexpected:
- I draw a shape with pen tool. A few clicks and enter. All well: I get a shape (modified according to clipboard path) as expected.
- With the shape still selected, I choose fill red, stroke green. The shape changes color as expected: filled red with a green outline. So far so good.
- Now I draw a new shape. I would expect again a red fill and a green outline. Instead I get a green fill and no outline. Intuitively this doesn' behave like "last style selected", I find. No?

Attached a demonstration of what I mean. I would have expected the 3d shape to be exactly like the 2nd, and the 5th exactly as the 4th, but they're not...

(Wonderful program by the way, Inkscape, I'm not criticising, just trying to grasp the details here).
