Copying and Pasting Drawings

SOLIDWORKS Electrical has an integrated clipboard feature independent of Windows. The elements placed on the clipboard automatically replace those there previously.

To copy and paste, right-click the book, folder, or drawing, and click Cut, Copy, Paste, or Paste special.
Cut is not available when you right-click a book.
Option Description
Cut Places a copy of the selected drawings (of the book or folder) on the SOLIDWORKS Electrical clipboard and deletes the originals.
Copy Places a copy of the selected drawings (of the book or folder) on the SOLIDWORKS Electrical clipboard and keeps the originals.
Paste

Pastes the drawings present on the SOLIDWORKS Electrical clipboard. The drawing numbers and component marks for the components in these drawings are automatically recalculated (where applicable) according to the marks in the electrical project.

Paste Special Pastes in the same way as Paste, and opens a dialog box that lets you manage marks.
