Confirms the parent or associated objects of the pasted objects. You can change the selection object in the right column.

This dialog box appears when you are pasting objects from the Catalog.

Description

Provides a description of the input object.

Selection

Shows the parent associated with the object.

You can resize the columns on this dialog box as well as resize the entire dialog box in order to more fully view the information.

Delete Optional

Removes the text in the Selection column for rows in the grid that start with the word "Optional." This button is useful in large copy-and-paste operations when the grid is filled with many optional tasks, and you want to remove all these items at once.

Show Clipboard window

Creates a window that displays the Clipboard contents, including the input objects.

Keep original permission groups

Controls the permission group assignment for the pasted objects. This option is helpful when you are pasting large data sets containing different types of objects (piping, equipment, structure). Here are some important points to remember about this option.

  • When this option is selected, the software assigns all pasted objects to the original permission group, as long as you have write access to that permission group.

  • When this option is selected, if you do not have write access or if the permission group does not exist (such as in the case when pasting from one database to another), then the software assigns the objects to the active permission group.

  • When this option is not selected, the software assigns the objects to the active permission group.

Paste in place

This option is not available when you are using the Paste from Catalog command.
