Copying/Moving Items in the Same Diagram (BDE)

Note
You create a new graphical occurrence of the same element, not a new element, when you paste a diagram item from the clipboard to the diagram.

In the drawing area, select the diagram items you want to cut or copy.
A selected item is marked by handles at its edges.
To cut the selected items, do one of the following.
- In the Edit menu, select Cut.
- Press <Ctrl> + <x>.
- Click Cut.
The selected items are deleted from the diagram and moved to the clipboard.
To copy the selected items, do one of the following.
- In the Edit menu, select Copy.
- Press <Ctrl> + <c>.
- Click Copy.
The selected items are copied to the clipboard without deleting them from the drawing area.
To paste the items, do one of the following.
- In the Edit menu, select Paste.
- Press <Ctrl> + <v>.
- Click Paste.
The diagram items from the clipboard are inserted close their previous locations. Pasted sequence calls are reset.
Drag the new diagram items to a suitable location.
Edit the pasted sequence calls.
If your selection contained method-local elements, make sure that the return value is assigned only once and has the highest sequence number.
