Description
The Std Paste command pastes objects from the Clipboard into the active document.
Usage
- There are several ways to invoke the command:
Notes
- FreeCAD will automatically change the internal names and, depending on the preferences, labels of objects to avoid name conflicts.
- A spreadsheet cell alias that already exists in the spreadsheet will not be pasted.
- When you are working in a FreeCAD text window, an input box or a spreadsheet, the standard keyboard shortcut Ctrl+V, in almost all cases, does not call this command but uses the Paste function from the OS instead.
- It is not possible to copy-paste native objects between FreeCAD and other applications.
Preferences
See also: Preferences Editor.
- To allow duplicate labels check the Edit → Preferences... → General → Document → Allow duplicate object labels in one document option. But this is not recommended.
