How to copy multiple objects from one app to another (at the same time/together)?

Hi,

Just open 2 qvw applications separately and just drag and drop the objects from one application to another application.

if you want multiple objects just select multiple objects drag and drop it into 2nd application.

before you need check check whether it has permissions to drag and drop in layout tab.

Hi ,

You can copy/move all of your required objects into one sheet and copy the whole sheet to the target qvw.

Like objects you can copy the sheets.

Best Regards,

Hi, Thanks for the reply. I am not able to achieve the desired result with the above mentioned suggestions which is why I think I should explain my problem in detail :

I have two sheets (now both in the same app) with different data. I want to keep the basic look and feel of the two sheets similar to each other (as they are part of the same app) that's why I want to copy the header section (Topmost) of one sheet to another. However, as this section is made up of a lot of different text objects/buttons, I am not able to achieve this at a single go. It's too cumbersome to copy each and every object separately. I do not want to copy the sheet as the two sheets have different data.

Hi,

Just Drag your mouse to all the objects Start and End Boundaries and copy it and paste to next sheet.

You will get the desired result.

In the below image for eg : we select only From Date and To Date Object by dragging the Mouse.

Just copy and then paste to next sheet it is visisble as it is in the next sheet.

Thanks for the reply Suresh, but for some reason it's not happening. It just copies one object at a time.

Hi,

Another way of doing is to Just Selct the objects you want to copy from one sheet to another by pressing Ctrl tab and select the objects through mouse.

This way also we can select multible objects and paste to another sheet.

Are the source objects set to allow copy (Properties > Layout > Options > Allow Copy/Clone)?

Yes, it copies one at a time but not multiple together.

YB,

try to copy paste objects one by one.

because sometimes it will copies all objects, sometimes it will not.

I am also facing the same problem.

Just open 2 qvw applications separately and just copy(ctrl+c) and drop (ctrl+v) the objects from one application to another application.

if you want multiple objects just select multiple objects drag and drop it into 2nd application.

before you need check check whether it has permissions to drag and drop in layout tab.
