How to use cut/copy/paste

Like the drag and drop functionality, the cut, copy and paste functions offer a convenient way to transfer or copy objects within the Task or Change Request views, or between each other.  This allows you to quickly change a file or folder’s task association, or change a task’s CR association. Only files, folders and tasks may be transferred in this manner.

Changing task associations for files and folders

Files and folders may be cut or copied from one task and pasted to another. This can take place between 2 tasks within the Task view, 2 tasks within the CR view, or between a task in the Task view and a task in the CR view. The cut function will disassociate the selected files or folders from their tasks and place them on the clipboard, while the copy function will only place them on the clipboard. You may then use the paste function to associate them with a selected task.

Note: A file or folder under a task may not be pasted into a task that belongs to a different connection.

Changing CR associations for tasks

Tasks may be cut or copied from one CR and pasted to another within the Change Request view. The cut function will disassociate the selected tasks from their CRs and place them on the clipboard, while the copy function will only place them on the clipboard. The user may then use the paste function to associate them with a selected CR.

Note: A task under a CR may not be pasted into a CR that belongs to a different connection.
