Drawing Tree: General Popup Operations

Right-click one or more selected items in the tree to access the General Options popup submenu:

• Cut - Removes the items from the tree. The removed item is grayed-out (indicating that it was removed) until it is pasted in its new position.

• Copy - Copies an item and stores it for pasting to a new location (on the same sheet, a different sheet or a sheet in another file).

• Paste - Pastes the copied/cut item in the new location (on the same sheet, a different sheet or a sheet in another file). If the new location is invalid, an error message appears. Pasting a figure with an identical name to an existing view will change the new figure name.

  • From graphic area: Paste a graphic figure (view, sketch, etc.) on the graphic area by picking the new position on the graphic area, right-clicking and selecting paste from the popup submenu.
  • From drawing tree: Click the figure itself (sheet, view, etc.), right-click and select paste; the figure is positioned at delta relative to the original position.

• Delete - Deletes the item from the tree. The deleted item cannot be restored (Undo option not available). You can also use the delete key on the keyboard.

• Rename - Renames the active leaf or branch. A single view, sheet, or frame selected in the tree can be renamed by pressing F2 on the keyboard.
