==Description== <!--T:2-->
The Paste command is involved in replicating [[Document_structure|Document]] objects. It places the current "clipboard" contents into the current document. Objects may be copy/pasted between Documents.


==How to use== <!--T:3-->
<!--T:10-->
The '''Std Paste''' command pastes objects from the Clipboard into the active document.
# Make the target Document active by clicking on it in the Project tab or Document window.
# Press the {{KEY|[[File:Std Paste.png|16px]] Paste}} icon, {{KEY|Ctrl}} + {{KEY|V}} keys or use menu choices {{MenuCommand|Edit → Paste}}.


==Limitations== <!--T:4-->
==Usage== <!--T:3-->

* In general, it is not possible to paste FreeCAD objects into other applications, or paste objects from other applications into a FreeCAD document.
<!--T:11-->
# There are several ways to invoke the command:
#* Press the {{Button|[[Image:Std_Paste.svg|16px]] [[Std_Paste|Std Paste]]}} button.
#* Select the {{MenuCommand|Edit → [[Image:Std_Paste.svg|16px]] Paste}} option from the menu.
#* Select the {{MenuCommand|[[Image:Std_Paste.svg|16px]] Paste}} option from the [[Tree_view|Tree view]] context menu. Note that this option is only available when an existing object has been selected.
#* Use the keyboard shortcut: {{KEY|Ctrl}}+{{KEY|V}}.

==Notes== <!--T:12-->

<!--T:13-->
* 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 {{KEY|Ctrl}}+{{KEY|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== <!--T:14-->

<!--T:15-->
* Duplicate labels are allowed if {{MenuCommand|Tools → Edit parameters... → BaseApp → Preferences → Document → DuplicateLabels}} is set to {{TRUE}}. This setting can also be changed in the [[Preferences_Editor#Document|Preferences Editor]].

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 existing 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.
