When manually creating a "GoToView" test step and pasting automation attributes in the "Paste Attributes" field record creation fails with

‘Description’ is a required field. Please enter a value for the field.(SBL-DAT-00498)

If you fill in the Description field and attempt to paste again into the "Paste Attributes", the record saves, but the information pasted is not parsed and not saved correctly.

Playing back the script results in error: Invalid Inputs. Please verify the Signature of the keyword.

The issue can be reproduced at will with the following the steps in "Capturing Automation Attributes for Test Steps"  

Specifically:

1. Log in with AutoOn

4. Press the CTRL key on your keyboard and right-click your mouse button simultaneously.
