Copying and pasting property values
Copying and pasting makes it easy to transfer property values from one object to another.
There are two options for copying object properties:
Copy all properties: To copy all object properties, both static properties and data attachments, select an object and click the copy button on the toolbar.
Copy single property: To copy an individual property from the
Object Properties window, right-click on the property name and select
Copy. To copy a property from the
Edit Function dialog, right-click in a text field and select
Copy.
There are four options for pasting object properties:
Paste data attachments: To paste only data attachments, select one or more objects and click on the paste data attachments button on the toolbar or use the keyboard shortcut
Ctrl+Shift+V.
Note: Only properties common to both objects are pasted onto the selected object or objects.
Paste static properties: To paste only the static properties, select one or more objects and click on the paste static properties button on the toolbar. Note: Only properties common to both objects are pasted onto the selected object or objects.
Paste all properties: To paste all properties, select one or more objects and click on the paste all properties button on the toolbar. This pastes all static properties as well as all data attachments. Note: Only properties common to both objects are pasted onto the selected object or objects.
Paste single property: To paste an individual property into the
Object Properties window, right-click on the property name and select
Paste. The
Paste option is enabled only if the copied attribute can be set on the selected property (data attachments, for example, cannot be pasted onto static properties). To paste a property in the
Edit Function dialog, right-click in a text field and select
Paste.
