Cannot Copy Card in Project Browser
Hello Forum Friends,
I am not able to Copy or even Delete a card in the Project Browser (Windows 10 LC Indy 9.01 and 9.02).
Option Copy is Dimmed (as is option Cut).
I have Cards that function as a Template and I need to be able to clone and rename those Cards.
is there anything I am not aware off or is it indeed a bug? or it there another way of doing this?
Kind regards,
Paul

Re: Cannot Copy Card in Project Browser
Yep, same here, no idea if this is a bug or feature.
Re: Cannot Copy Card in Project Browser
Can you right click on the card in the PB ?
*Edit 2 - since it works in 6.x, i'd vote 'bug'.
*Edit 1 - this is 8.1.2 in 'nix, so not sure about Win.*Edit 2 - since it works in 6.x, i'd vote 'bug'.

I think we are in fact talking about this namely menu.
Re: Cannot Copy Card in Project Browser
Ah, I thought you meant either the edit menu or the buttons along the bottom (lots of duplications eh?)

Delete Card is not dimmed but also does not work
I think it is a bug !!! How else can we clone a card ???
Anybody any suggestions before I report it as a bug?

Re: Cannot Copy Card in Project Browser
Well, I'm pretty sure you can still do it in code
examples
clone field 1
clone the selectedObject
clone this card as "clonedCard"
clone invisible stack "myStack"

Re: Cannot Copy Card in Project Browser
Yeah, there are lots of... um... limitations to the Project Browser.
You might want to try a recent build of Navigator instead. It's taken me a bit of time to get used to the UI, but it does all the things the PB should.

Re: Cannot Copy Card in Project Browser
Thanks for the help fellowship of the LCérs,
I already have Navigator running (month or so) but could get used to the interface.
I need to spend some time on it to get comfortable...
I am able to proceed with building my applications so thanks for the support and I will enter a bug report ....
