ClipBoard


Recommended Posts

I have a script which uses "paste in place" to move graphic elements from one layer to another. Works well except if there is anything at all (incluidng text from other applications) in the Windows Clipboard, this is pasted into the drawign file.

How can this be avoided? Is there a way for the script to purge the clipboard before starting the "paste in place" operation?

It should work automatically. Make sure that you are copying something from VW first. The only time I have seen this happen is when the copy didn't happen.

If you are in version 10 or later you should be using SetParent to change the layer of an object.
