6-1-5 Copying, Cutting, Pasting, and Deleting Elements

Copying and pasting elements
If multiple data creation screens are displayed, an element can be moved over to
another data creation screen by dragging it.
The screen element can be moved by pressing cursor key (°, ±, ², ³) on key-
board after selection.
The size of movement depends on the setting of the Snap to Grid as follows:
When Snap to Grid is OFF
Cursor key:
Shift key + Cursor key:
When Snap to Grid is ON
Cursor key:
Shift key + Cursor key:
However, if the selected elements include touch switch, elements always move
by the size of the touch switch grid regardless of whether Shift key is pressed or
not.
To move a part of an element such as the % Display for a bar graph or Label for a
lamp/touch switch, click on the objective part while holding down the Shift key
and Ctrl key (or after selecting "Edit Object"), then perform move operation.
In case of NT11S/NT11, there is a special requirement i.e. The selected objects
will move by one system grid size (8,16) in all cases. The snap to grid option value
is not considered.
