Copying and Pasting Items in a Grid Layout


Grid layout allows you to copy and paste items.

To copy and paste controls

  1. Navigate to the applet you want to edit, right-click, and then choose Edit Web Layout.
  2. In the Mode field of Web Controls toolbar, choose the applet mode that you want to edit.
  3. In the Layout Canvas, hold down the Shift key, and then select the items you want to copy.
  4. Choose Edit > Copy.
  5. Go to the Web template where you want the items to appear and then choose Edit > Paste.
    • If you are pasting into the same applet Web template, new Control and Applet Web Template Item objects are created.
    • If you are pasting into the same applet, but to another mode, only Applet Web Template Items are created.
    • If you are pasting to a different applet, new Control and Applet Web Template Item objects are created.

      When you choose Edit > Undo or delete Applet Web Template Items from layouts, controls are not automatically deleted. If you want to delete the controls, you need to do it manually.

      CAUTION:  If you are working in language override mode and you choose Edit > Undo after you have cut items from the applet layout, close the Applet Layout Editor without saving your changes. Otherwise. you will encounter errors.
