Std Paste

Description

The Std Paste command pastes objects from the Clipboard into the active document.

Usage

  1. There are several ways to invoke the command:
    • Press the Std Paste button.
    • Select the Edit → Paste option from the menu.
    • Select the Paste option from the Tree view context menu. Note that this option is only available when an exiting object has been selected.
    • Use the keyboard shortcut: Ctrl+V.

Notes

  • FreeCAD will automatically change the internal names and, depending on the preferences, labels of objects to avoid name conflicts.
  • A spreadsheet cell alias that already exists in the spreadsheet will not be pasted.
  • When you are working in a FreeCAD text window, an input box or a spreadsheet, the standard keyboard shortcut Ctrl+V, in almost all cases, does not call the Std Paste command but uses the Paste function from the OS instead.
  • It is not possible to copy-paste native objects between FreeCAD and other applications.

Preferences

  • Duplicate labels are allowed if Tools → Edit parameters... → BaseApp → Preferences → Document → DuplicateLabels is set to True. This setting can also be changed in the Preferences Editor.
