In the editor of the IDE, when I put the cursor somewhere and paste multiple

then only the first line is indented (starts where the cursor is) but all 
following lines are not indented
(start from column 0).
For example, if I have this code snippet in the clipboard:
case X of
     1 :
else
     end; { of case }
and paste it at column 4 then I get
     case X of
     1:
else
     end; { of case }
instead of
     case X of
        1 :
     else
        end; { of case }
so I have to indent lines 2-4 manually each time I paste it.
Is that how it should be?
I would like to have the whole block indented in the same way as the first 
column.
Not yet implemented.
Okay. I was not sure whether it can be enabled by some option.

At the moment pasting at Col>1 pastes the text without reformatting.
When you paste at Col 1, and you have option 'Codetools/General/On
paste from clipboard' enabled the IDE will auto indent/unindent the
pasted text, each line the same amount.
This would not help much as I want to specify the indentation of the
whole block by positioning the cursor somewhere.
I would not have to change the indentation after pasting then.

Thanks for the explanation.
