CLIPBOARD
The clipboard function allows the user to work on a subsection of a model. Each model has its own clipboard and the clipboard contents remains part of the model. The clipboard contents can be;
- renumbered - this is useful for renumbering nodes and elements by part
- interrogated for their locations - useful when a model contains many include files
- saved as a group or new model - a quick way of obtaining a complete sub model
- written as a separate keyword file - useful when only specific parts need to be modified in a separate application
- moved to a new or existing include file - useful for model organisation
- merged into another model - a quick way of building new models
- reuse of selections in general object menus
