To copy objects

You can use the Copy command to store the selected objects in the Windows clipboard without removing them from the display.

1. Select the objects that you wish to copy using any selection method.

Help: For further information see Using the Select menu.

2. Click the Copy icon ( ) from the Edit toolbar or click Edit / Cut.

Note: S-Frame shows the copied objects by using a different color (default dark red) for them in the Geometry window. You can change this color to suit your own personal taste.

Help: For further information see To edit the color settings.

Note: Your selection is stored in the clipboard, together with its relationship to the current user coordinate system. If you change the user coordinate system and then paste from the clipboard the selection will be pasted relative to the new system. You can therefore paste the same information to various locations within your structure by repeatedly changing your user coordinate system between consecutive pastes.

Note: You can only store one selection in the clipboard. When you cut or copy another selection, then this will automatically delete your current one.

Note: If you copy elements which are in folders, and then paste them elsewhere in your structure, the pasted copies will also be in the same folders as the originals.

Note: When you are copying and pasting elements, then you can choose whether or not you want to copy any loads that are applied to that element.

Help: For further information see To set Preferences.
