Copy

The Copy option in the toolbar or the Edit menu, allows you to copy the contents of the active view to the Windows clipboard. This can then be pasted into word-processing or paint programs, for further editing, report writing etc.

Images can be saved in two different formats, available in the Picture Format option in the Edit menu:

1. Windows Bitmap
2. Enhanced Metafile

You should set the desired picture format BEFORE using Copy. Changing the picture format AFTER using Copy will have no effect on the clipboard contents.

Note:

• The window border and title bar will NOT be copied, only the contents of the window.
• The highlighted dark blue title bar indicates the active view.
• If the Report Generator is the active view, then the Copy option will copy the Report Generator text to the clipboard. By default, ALL text in the Report Generator will be copied to the clipboard.
• See the Exporting Images topic for further information about saving images with RS2.
