moving element from one story to another

Anonymous — Wed, 06 Jul 2005 11:17:34 GMT

Hi,
how can I move element from one story to another, not copping it and pasting?

if I cop (ctrl+C) and paste (ctrl+V) on another story, I have new element and all solid element operations are lost. I need to move element from one story to another not copping it. How can I do that?

I don't think it can be done. If you copy the target and the operator together, the operation is maintained. Otherwise you have to do it over.

Hi,
I haven't tried this, but I think it won't work because it creates new elements that are not parts of any previously defined solid element operation, and therefore they can not perform this operation.

Thank for replay.

If you copy elements with their operators, the operations are also copied.
When James M. says it can be done you can pretty well count on it.

Just tried it, and works like a charm.
