Right-clicking on an object in the tree view, or selecting an object and clicking Edit in the menu toolbar, allows you to perform a number of editing operations on that object:
The editing operations that are available depend on the type of object selected.
Table 6.3: Availability of Editing Operations
| Geometric Features | Connections | Environment Features | Results Objects | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Copy and Paste [a] | √ | √ | √ [b] | |
| Duplicate [a] [c] | √ [d] | √ | √ | |
| Propagate [a] [c] | √ | |||
| Break Link | √ [e] | |||
| Delete | √ | √ | √ | √ |
[a] An object must be up-to-date (shown with a green check mark in the tree view) before the Copy, Duplicate and Propagate operations can be used.
[b] Only between analysis systems of the same Computation Type, or for graphical results between a Stability Analysis and a Time Response Analysis.
[c] Duplicate and Propagate use a separate clipboard than Copy. If you copy one object and then duplicate or propagate another, the data of the first object is still available to be pasted.
[d] Only on an object of which more than one per structure is permitted.
[e] On an object that has been created by a Propagate operation.
