Under the "Edit" menu item, the usual editing options – from Delete and Cut to Undo – can be used, a repeat function is additionally available, which is useful for example, for grid-like placement. |
... they must first be selected. In order to edit a number objects together, they must first be grouped. |
Every selected object can be deleted, cut and copied:
Each previously copied or cut object (i.e. located in the clipboard) can be inserted on the main plate:
The inserted object will appear with a slight offset relative to the location of the reference point of the original object, if this is still on the main plate, and can then be further processed. (If you add it to another main plate for example, then it appears at the location of the reference point of the original object.) If you want to assign a defined position to the copy of an object immediately, then instead of "Copy & Paste" you need to perform the corresponding movement actions with the original. |
Every last action performed with an object can be undone with Ctrl + z or with Edit > Undo: (Name of action) . By repeatedly "undoing", each design stage can be successively restored. |
Every previously undone action can be redone using Shift + Ctrl + z . This editing feature is only available if an action (or a number of consecutive actions) has been undone immediately before. |
Every action last performed with an object can be repeated with Ctrl + r or with Edit > Repeat: (Name of action) . This command can be used for example to continue to move an object by previously set increments on a trial basis or to produce consecutive copies of an object in an previously fixed grid. |
