The Cut, Copy, and Paste commands enable you to quickly create other customized symbols. This technique saves you time by eliminating the need to re-create basic shapes for symbols that already exists.

Copying and Pasting Symbols

When you select a symbol and click Copy , the software places a copy on the Symbol Editor internal clipboard. Then, when you click Paste , the symbol is placed in the Edit window of the SKEY you specify. The shape of the symbol does not change from its original form.

Cutting and Deleting Symbols

The Cut command enables you to move symbols from one SKEY to another. As with the Copy command, the symbol is placed on the Symbol Editor internal clipboard. You can then place the symbol in the Edit window of a different SKEY.

  • If you do not Paste the symbol after cutting it, it is permanently removed from the project.

  • To permanently remove a symbol, select it, and then click the Delete command.
