Transferring Data between Modules

The system consists of four modules, each with a special function. Once you finish working in one of the modules you may want to move the job on to the next module. Use the system's internal clipboard to do this. CopyPaste lets you transfer geometric data between the modules in a simplified manner.

Copy

To export, mark the geometries to be transferred, and select the EditCopy option.

Paste

To import, select the EditPaste option. The transferred geometries will enter the selected secondary window.

[Note] Note

Since the Windows 2000™, 2000 Professional™, XP Home™, XP Professional™ or NT4™ clipboard does not support vector information; the system uses a separate clipboard.

The separate clipboard is a file transfer mechanism. This means that you may copy something to the clipboard today and pick it up tomorrow.
