Solid operations - copying the solid operators to a new element.

Hello to all,

I am currently having an issue regarding the solid operation tool. I have some Soil Filling to plan and eventhow i have build everything with slab tool and removed all relevant elements like foundations, stone fillings and other stuffs with the solid operation tool, my slab is no longer a solid, i can only see the facettes. My question would be: is there any possibility to copy all operators from an element to an other element without selecting every single operator element?

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Operating system used: Windows

Short answer is no. Not that I'm aware of. But here is a quick way to select all of the operator objects so you can copy them...

Make sure you have all your layers turned on in your model, All Visible

Highlight your Soil Filling (Slab)

Open Solid Element Operation (SEO) Palette

With the Soil Filling (Slab) selected, Go to the Add to Selection portion of the Palette, and click on the Add Operators

Deselect your Soil Filling (Slab) from the selection by using the Shift key

Then all of your Operators will be selected

Copy as needed

You will need to SEO the new oject you create though. The selected elements will only be assigned to the solid element operation of the previous Soil Filling (Slab).

Thank you for the solution, I have used this method previously but i was wondering if there is an alternative way to just copy the operators to another element, hence the question. Non the less, thank you for your answer.
