1.1.1.2.2.1. Context menu commands for copy and cut functions combined

All copy and cut functions from the history tree's context menu have now been grouped in the Copy/Cut submenu.

There are now four options:

  1. Copy: Copies the selected element without its dependencies. Right-click a layer in the history tree or a surface in the 3D view, then select " Insert Copied Element [Paste copied Item] " to insert a copy of the element at that location.

  2. Copy (with dependencies): Copies not only the selected feature, but also all elements attached to it.

    Example: If you copy a base extrusion on whose surface another sketch has been created, that sketch is also copied. To insert it, use the context menu of a layer in the history tree or a surface in the 3D pane.

  3. Cut (with dependencies): Works like "Cut Sketch" in earlier versions, but now also supports element types other than just sketches. When cutting, the associated dependencies are always taken into account.

  4. Copy to...: Opens another menu with all available layers. After selecting a layer, the feature is copied to that layer. This is equivalent to first selecting Copy (see step 1) and then right-clicking the desired layer in the history tree to select Paste [Insert].

Elements with support for "Copy/Cut" [Copy/Cut]

The following items now display the Copy/Cut submenu in the context menu:

  • Sketch

  • Drawing

  • Level

  • Extrusion

  • Rotation

  • Text

  • Texture

  • Pipe

Elements that do not support "Copy/Cut" [Copy/Cut]

The following elements do not currently support copy or cut functions:

  • Sweep

  • NURBS Solids (STEP Integration)

  • Pattern

Special Considerations for Fillet Rounding

Fillets (Blends) behave in a special way. A fillet cannot be selected directly and then copied. However, if an extrusion is copied along with its dependencies, the associated fillets are automatically copied as well.
