There are a few things to keep in mind when pasting tasks:
l When you cut a task or branch, it disappears from the Process Area but is kept in your
clipboard until it is pasted somewhere else.
l You can cut or copy a task or branch from one process and paste it in another process or
subprocess.
l
When you cut an input or output task, it is replaced with an Unknown Task, that you will
need to replace with another task for the process to be functional.
l If you cut one task or branch, then cut another one, the first one is lost and replaced by the
second. Remember however that you can always undo the command to retrieve it (see
Undo a Command).
l Tasks and branches will always appear on top (in other words, before)the task or branch
where you paste it. The only exceptions are input and output tasks which can only be
pasted on top of Unknown Task.
Note
Instead of pasting the actual task or branch, you can simply paste the properties of the task or
branch.
