## Declaration

```swift
optional func pasteAndMatchStyle(_ sender: Any?)
```

## Parameters

## Discussion

Discussion UIKit calls this method when the user selects the Paste command from an editing menu. Your implementation should read the data from the pasteboard and add the resulting content to your interface using the target’s current text style.
