5.6.5 Cut, copy, paste and paste new object properties
The following commands can be used to assign properties from one object to another object. The original object
might be deleted or left unchanged; the properties can be assigned to an existing object or by creating a new
one. Please refer also to section
5.5.3 Load, cut and paste object properties where properties are assigned to a group
of objects.
Cut object
The command Cut object copies the properties of the object (except size, position and source) and deletes the
object from the work area. The object properties can be assigned to another object, see Paste object and Paste
new object, below.
Also the
button from the button bar or the shortcut key Ctrl+X can be used.
Copy object
The command Copy object copies the properties of the selected object (except position and source). The object
properties can be assigned to another object, see Paste object and Paste new object, below. Also the
button (Copy object) from the button bar or the shortcut key Ctrl+C can be used.
Paste object
After object-properties have been copied, another object can be selected by a mouse click on it. The command
Paste object assigns the properties (except the size and source) to the now selected object. If a video object
was copied, then source (0) gets assigned or if the object had a source before this source is obtained.
Also the
button (Paste object) from the button bar or the shortcut key Ctrl+V can be used.
Paste new object
After object-properties have been copied, they can be assigned to a new object. The command Paste new
object creates a new object with these properties and locates it in the upper left corner. The name of the new
object is the name of the original object where a running number is appended. In case of a video object the
source of the new object is the first unused source of the sources list.
Also the
button (Paste new object) from the button bar or the shortcut key Alt+V can be used.
5.6.6 Stacking order of an object
The Move Object commands serve to determine the position of an object in the stacking order. Please refer also
to section
5.5.4 Stacking order of objects where the stacking order is assigned to a group of objects.

the very front.
Also the
button (Move object to front) from the button bar or the shortcut key Ctrl+F can be used.
