The Paste Special Command
When the common Paste command is used all the glyphs’ layers are pasted
from the Clipboard including guidelines, bitmap background, mask etc. To
get more control over the pasting procedure use the Paste Special
command in the Edit menu. The Paste Special dialog appears:
to let you choose what glyph information you are pasting. Check the
checkboxes and click OK to finish pasting glyphs.
When pasting with this special command the destination selection does not
have to be continuous, i.e. you can select cells to be replaced in any order
and combination.
