00000009.gif The Dialog Editor supports the standard Cut, Copy, and Paste operations found under the "Edit" menu. The "Cut" command deletes selected controls and places them in the clipboard. The deleted item remains on the clipboard until the next time you use the "Edit/Cut" or "Edit/Copy" command. You can use the "Edit/Paste" command to paste as many copies as you want from the clipboard into the image. Controls can be deleted without changing the clipboard by using the "Edit/Delete" command.

00000013.gif The clipboard is shared among all active Dialog Editor session. You can copy graphics from one image into another by activating the source edit window, using the "Copy" command, then activating the destination editor and using the "Paste" command.

NOTE

The dialog box itself can never be “cut” or “deleted”. It can, however, be selected for the purpose of changing its properties.
