Quest: how to select all and copy to clipboard ?
« on: November 09, 2005, 11:02 AM »
Sometimes...
- i want to modify an shot
- copy all (shot + modifications) into the clipboard (ctrl+C)
- paste it into an other program (ctrl+V)
- back in SC i want to undo my modification or delete objects
- and do an second modification



But i get only the back images, the main shot, without all my objects to copy.


Solution...
First i had to "Objects | Flatten all objects" --- and copy than to the clipboard.

- Than i must select an other (or even itself) shot in the left list
- say "Abandon operation" ... to undo the flattern function
- than i can do my second modification


----------

isen't there an other way ?
Maybe "Ctrl+A" for select all and auto-flattern ?
With following auto-un-flattern if i unselect all or click on an other modul ?



You see, often i don't want to always save my shots/modifications, but just modifiy and copy.

Yeah, the "undo" needs to get better, I suggest you put this suggestion into the bug tracker.
