Design Option Copy/Paste

Does anyone know the procedure to copy paste a object from one plan into another, where the object was previously create in a option set. if I try to copy/paste a option object, I get the message:

 

Elements have been created in currently inactive design options.

As a result,these elements will be hidden until their design option are activated.

 

it does matter if I have the identical design option set up in the second plan, they still disappear no mater what option I click on. If a object was created on the main model -- no problem. Maybe you can't do this? Hotlinks seem to work OK, but there, you have to use the hotlink dialog to control the options of the placed hotlink?

Trying to find out the simplest process as well.  Shouldn't be that hard. Currently I'm using the copy/paste/ undo / Transfer Link method.

Seams like an pop up option to paste to current design option or paste to original would speed things up a great deal.
