12 Chapter 2—Schematic Editing
Using Clipboard Data From Other Programs
When you start up LogicWorks, the Clipboard may contain text or graphi-
cal information cut or copied from a document in another program. Logic-
Works allows you to make use of this information as follows:
Text information from a word processor or text editor can be pasted
into a text block.
Picture information from other applications can be pasted onto a
LogicWorks circuit diagram.
See more information in the Edit menu section of Chapter 12, Menu
Reference.
Using Clipboard Data From LogicWorks
When a Cut or Copy is performed, two types of data are placed on the Clip-
board:
A bitmap picture (Windows BMP format) of the selected items. This
could be pasted into a graphics document using most drawing
programs.
The LogicWorks circuit info for the selected items. This data is in a
format that only LogicWorks can understand, and is discarded when
you Quit. This means that you cannot transfer circuit information
between LogicWorks sessions.
The Cut and Copy commands work on the currently selected group of
objects and will be disabled if nothing is selected. See the section below on
“Selecting Circuit Objects.” When items are copied onto the Clipboard,
their names are copied with them, which may result in duplicate names. If
duplicate signal names are pasted back into the circuit from which they
were copied, then logical connections will be made between the like-
named segments.
