==Description== <!--T:2-->
==Description== <!--T:10-->
The [[Image:Std_Copy.svg|24px]] [[Std Copy|Copy]] command places the currently selected objects into the "clipboard" for later use by the [[Image:Std Paste.svg|24px]] [[Std_Paste|Paste]] command. Objects may be copied between Documents.


==How to use== <!--T:3-->
<!--T:2-->
The '''Std Copy''' command copies objects to the Clipboard.
# Select the Object(s) to be copied.
# Invoke the Copy command several ways:
#* Press the {{KEY|[[File:Std Copy.png|16px]] Copy}} button in the toolbar
#* Using the {{KEY|Ctrl}} + {{KEY|C}} keyboard shortcut
#* Using the {{MenuCommand|{{StdMenu|[[Std Edit Menu|Edit]]}} → Copy}} entry from the top menu


==Limitations== <!--T:4-->
==Usage== <!--T:11-->
* In general, it is not possible to copy FreeCAD objects into other applications, or copy objects from other applications into a FreeCAD document.


==More== <!--T:5-->
<!--T:3-->
# Select one or more objects.
* See the [[Copying_Objects|Copying objects]] page for more details on replicating objects.
# There are several ways to invoke the command:
#* Press the {{Button|[[Image:Std_Copy.svg|16px]] [[Std_Copy|Std Copy]]}} button.
#* Select the {{MenuCommand|Edit → [[Image:Std_Copy.svg|16px]] Copy}} option from the menu.
#* Select the {{MenuCommand|[[Image:Std_Copy.svg|16px]] Copy}} option from the [[Tree_view|Tree view]] context menu.
#* Use the keyboard shortcut: {{KEY|Ctrl}}+{{KEY|C}}.
# If the objects have dependencies that have not been selected, a dialog box will prompt you to specify which should be included.

==Notes== <!--T:14-->

<!--T:15-->
* When you are working in a FreeCAD text window, an input box or a spreadsheet, the standard keyboard shortcut {{KEY|Ctrl}}+{{KEY|C}}, in almost all cases, does not call the '''Std Copy''' command but uses the Copy function from the OS instead.
* It is not possible to copy-paste native objects between FreeCAD and other applications.

Description

The Std Copy command copies objects to the Clipboard.

Usage

  1. Select one or more objects.
  2. There are several ways to invoke the command:
    • Press the Std Copy button.
    • Select the Edit → Copy option from the menu.
    • Select the Copy option from the Tree view context menu.
    • Use the keyboard shortcut: Ctrl+C.
  3. If the objects have dependencies that have not been selected, a dialog box will prompt you to specify which should be included.

Notes

  • When you are working in a FreeCAD text window, an input box or a spreadsheet, the standard keyboard shortcut Ctrl+C, in almost all cases, does not call the Std Copy command but uses the Copy function from the OS instead.
  • It is not possible to copy-paste native objects between FreeCAD and other applications.
