You are viewing documentation for Structure Server and Data Center version 5.3 and patch releases. For other versions, see Version Index or [Structure Cloud].
The contents of the Structure clipboard is preserved in the current browser window, which allows you to copy/cut items in one structure and paste them into another.
To copy items (with their sub-items) from one structure to another:
First add the desired items to the clipboard:
Cut items are not removed from the structure until you paste them into another structure.
When you copy an item that contains sub-items, these sub-items are not automatically copied with their parent. You need to select them explicitly. To copy an item and all of its children:
Select a parent item
Press Shift+Arrow Right (this selects an item and all of the sub-issues)
Press the Copy button
When you cut an item, its sub-items are automatically cut and copied to the clipboard.
After you have cut/copied the items, you can now paste them into any other structure:
If any of the items you are pasting are already in the new structure, those existing items will not be affected. New copies of the items will be created as you paste.
The Paste operation can be undone.
If you need to copy the same set of issues to several different structures, you can open the Issue Clipboard in the secondary panel and use drag-and-drop to move the issues, instead of Paste. In this case, the issues will not be removed from the clipboard.
