Cut/Copy/Paste


 

The only way to select any item is by drawing a box around it. But
when we do this and move the mouse to click on 'Cut' or 'Copy' Icon,
the boxed items move also, and the mouse also will can select the
Icon!

How does one use the 'cut', 'copy' & 'paste' icons?

Hi Royce,

when you have selected the components you want to copy/cut, right button on mouse and select copy/paste, and then press the scape key. That will return the selected components to the starting point.
Enjoy...

Yes, I am aware of that.

I was refering to the CUT/COPY icons on the tool bar.

Try doing Cut/Copy using the toolbar icons.You'll know what I mean.

Thanks,

If you want to use cut copy icons, you must deactivate the "auto pan"
option in preference menu.

As an alternate option, you can enter the block command with holding the
shift key (copy) or shift+ctrl keys (delete)
See doc eeschema 2.2.2
