Copies a set of objects to the Catalog in a module that you designate. After you complete the command, the copied objects are available to all users to access as needed. The objects you copy do not need to share any type of functional relationship. The type of module you select determines the properties of the objects.

If the associated specification data, part data, symbols, or other reference data are not also copied from the source catalog into the target catalog, an error message displays when you use the Paste from Catalog Command. Possible error messages are listed below:

  • The PasteFromCatalog command succeeded. However some external objects are missing and may impact the final result. For more information, please refer to the ‘SP3D_Paste_MissingExternalObject.log’ file. Would you like to view the file now?

  • The catalog information required by this module is not found. The module should be deleted and recreated using your current catalog data.

The modules exist in the reference data as defined by the bulkload of module types. The reference data stores the following information for the module:

  • Name, description, and type of module that stores the data in the Catalog

  • Properties associated with the model type that allow you to search in the Catalog for a select set

  • The copied objects, which the software assigns to a common permission group for reference data

  • Identity of the input objects

  • Parent objects of the copied objects

  • Graphics for the inputs that display in the placement window

  • List of permission groups to which each copied object belonged

  • Stored object in the Catalog that controls all of this data as a row in a user folder

For more information about the modules that the Copy to Catalog command uses, refer to the Reference Data Guide available from the Help > Printable Guides command in the software.

You must have write permission to the permission group of the catalog module folder to which you are copying the objects.
