How to copy\paste a node?
« on: October 13, 2014, 03:39 AM »
I have a node that I would like to copy, then paste and make a few amendments.  However, when I highlight a menu\node and click Ctrl-C (copy this Subtree to clipboard) and then Ctrl-V nothing happens.  Is there something I am doing wrong here?

On a humorous note, I did a spell check on my post and it suggests I replace 'Ctrl-V' with 'Truelove'  :-*.  See attachment.

EDIT: I don't know what I was doing wrong but I can now copy and paste :D

Copy it as normal with Ctrl+C but then to paste it, select a PARENT node that can hold the pasted node as a child, then Ctrl+V -- that should work.

When it wasn't working I think I wasn't choosing a parent node. Thanks
