Hi Pietro,
I see this too. I don't know if it's intentional or not, since the main
point of the Verify event is to verify whether the text should be inserted.
However since VerifyEvent extends KeyEvent, the KeyDown information probably
could be provided as well. Feel free to log a request for this with SWT at
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=Platform &component=SWT&bug_severity=enhancement .
In the meantime, I think the only way to detect a case like this is to
listen in KeyDown, and if Ctrl+V is detected then set some property on the
Text so that it knows that the next received Verify event came from Ctrl+V.
(Keep in mind that Shift+Insert also pastes, and Command+V on OS X).

Hi Grant,
thanks for your response.
I've found that when user enter a key combination (say CTRL+v), the
property keyCode of VerifyEvent is 0.
I can utilize that value to understand that user has entered a key
combination.
Is that rigth?
Thanks,
Pietro
P.S.
Exceuse me for my poor english

Yes, this approach should mostly work. The only common case I can think of
where this would give a false-positive is Ctrl+Z. Also, it is possible that
some accessibility assistive technologies could give the user a way of
manipulating text without the corresponding keystrokes, which could also
give a false-positive. Whether these cases matter to you or not depends on
why you want to handle the paste-from-clipboard case specially.
