Cut
Grayed out unless specific characters are selected
. Cutting the text removes it from the design and places it on the clipboard. This text then can be pasted
into a different part of the design (see paste below for more information).
Copy
If specific characters are selected
it is similar to cut (above) except that this doesn't delete the text. If you select copy without selecting
text, it copies the entire design. This can then be easily pasted into Xara X¹ or later.
Paste
Paste is different depending on what you have on the clipboard:


If you have the cursor

turned on, and have text on the clipboard, the text will be pasted at the cursor position.


If you have the cursor

turned off, and have text on the clipboard, the text will overwrite all text in the design.


If you have an object copied from Xara X¹ or later, a shape will be created by pasting the object
in Xara3D. The result depends on what design type you are in: in button, board or border
designs

the object will be applied to the design's shape. In just text mode, the object will be pasted as a
text character.


If the option is grayed out Xara3D cannot interpret the clipboard contents (for example, if the
clipboard contains a bitmap).
