If elements have been selected which cannot be copied a respective hint is displayed.

Elements which can be copied

  • Sketches

  • Bases (Base-Extrude, Base-Rotate)

  • Cuts (Cut-Extrude, Cut-Rotate)

  • Planes (Offset and Rotational planes)

  • Patterns

  • Pipe runs

  • Texts

  • Sweeps (only if refplanes of both sketches are copied as well)

Elements which cannot be copied

  • Blends

  • Drawings

  • Absolute planes (including XY, ZX, YZ)

  • Sweeps (except if refplanes of both sketches are selected as well)

[Note]Note

  • It is tried to keep dependency-tree structures alive after copy, if necessary elements are selected as well.

  • Selecting a Base/Cut/Sweep will automatically copy its Sketch, too.

  • Selecting a Sketch, but not selecting its Base/Cut/Sweep will only copy the sketch.
