Can anyone describe how to cut and paste table columns in Data Modeler?

A number of times I have tried using the copy and paste columns functionality in Data Modeler, but in all circumstances when I've copied a set of columns from a table (by highlighting the column set and pressing the copy columns button), opened a new table, and pressed the paste columns at the end button, nothing has happened. is there some unintuitive thing that I need to do?

Ok, thanks.
I see I left "Copy" out of the first reply I sent.
1. Create a table or tables, say tables A and B.
2. Expand the table which has the columns you want to copy, say table A, in the browser
3. Shift (or ctrl) select the columns and select COPY from the context menu.
4. Click in the table you want to copy to, say table B, in the diagram and right-click to use the context menu , select paste
or select the table B in the browser and right-click, select paste.
Are you using the copy in the menu?
There was a bug in our Early Adopter that required you continued to hold the keys, but this has been addressed - you can read this thread to see how things were handled there: Re: Data Model: set of columns

    How can I move columns in Numbers without distorting the formula in other cells?  In Excel I can cut and paste entire columns and the formula in other cells adjusts accordingly.  When I do it in Numbers, the formula messes up.  How can I do this?
    For example: I have formulas in columns D and F that relate to columns C to CU
    If I want to move one column from one position to another (say S to T), the formula loses the colums that was moved, i.e. it doesn't recognize it has moved, rather sees it as deleted...  How can I do this without distorting the formula?

    Thanks for the feedback.
    If I often urge askers to look at the available resources, it's because  a large range of questions asked in the forums are already answered in these documents.
    As they are PDFs, they are easy to search in.
    CAUTION
    Download them while they are available.
    Given what is delivered with iBooks Author, I'm afraid that we will not get such easy to use documents.
    Searching infos in the  iBooks Author documentation available on line is awfully cumbersome and a lot of embedded links are wrongly flagged this way. In the Help files they aren't links but underlined strings.
    It seems that the tool used to generate the web pages was wrongly configured.

    After updating Firefox 19.0.2 to my iMac Desktop 10.8.2, Lion, I can no longer drag or cut and paste anything to anywhere, anymore. Please help. Thanks!

    Does this also happen if you try to copy/cut and paste text in a text area like "Post a Reply" on this forum?

  • Cutting and pasting tables from PDF files

    Hi
    We use large pdf files for survey data tables (typically 500-1000 pages). It would be very useful to be able to cut and paste tables into MS-Office applictions, but this is generally not available. However, I have been able to cut and paste from another pdf file.
    Right click on the selected tables gives two different menus, even though the software is the same (Adobe reader 9). The file I can cut and paste from has a right-click menu 'Copy with formatting', which works fine - the survey tables don't have the 'Copy with formatting' option.
    What causes this difference?  Is it possible to get the copy with formatting option?
    Apologies if this is really obvious - any help gratefully recieved.
    Regards
    Georges

    "Copy with formatting" is available when working with a Tagged output PDF.
    If the survey data tables' PDF is created via a reporting app it is most likely not a Tagged output PDF (and likely, not able to be processed out as a Tagged PDF).
    Be well...

  • How to cut and paste a picture into a shape in Illustrator CS4

    In illustrator CS4 I am trying to cut and paste a picture into a shape. In freehand the shortcut was so easy. I know there is one in Illustrator but cant remember what it is, can anyone tell me?

    K8,
    What Steve said, with the addition that you may get rid of the outlying parts, by:
    1) With the mask selected, in the Transparency palette dropdown select anything but Normal,
    2) Object>Flatten Transparency, no need to change options,
    unless you have withheld information and really want to distort the picture to fit the shape, in which case you should select both shape and picture and Object>Envelope Distort>Make with Top Object.
    The procedure 1) - 2) is destructive in case of vector artwork but makes no difference with raster images, and it makes it easier to avoid accidental/unwanted selection outside the  Clipping Mask.

  • How to Cut and Paste a file on Mac

    Hey guys,
    Nice to meet you here. I am a new Mac Book Pro 13" Retina Display user with OS X Yosemite. I just switched to Mac from Windows last week.
    So far I have a great experience using Mac. However one thing is troubling me. How do I cut and paste a file? I've tried command+x and command+v but it doesnt work. I can copy and paste though by using command+c and command+v.
    Your help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Arief

    nice pick...........
    I mean that i dont have to cut and paste just data in
    that files, but i have to cut and paste whole file
    from one location to other.
    Yup, if you need to do that physically you walk over to the filing cabinet, get the file out, cut it to pieces, take the pieces to the new location, glue them back together, and put the recreated file in the new filing cabinet.

  • How to cut and paste long Word document into text generator?

    I have a very long list of attributions in a Word document.
    When I cut and paste it into the "Sample Text" area, it goes in fine.
    But when I try to look at it ... either as simple text or, preferred, scrolling ... I only get parts of the document.
    I can correct it by adding a 'return' in the middle of every few words.
    But my document is so long, it would take a long time to do that one by one.
    Solutions sought: How to just import the whole document and have it scroll, zip-zip?!

    Thank you DH and skalaki, I had not known of the Boris title generator. Funny, I had looked in the FCE online manual until 'titling' and editing text ... didn't see mention of that.
    In any case ... I've now found it and trust I'll be able to figure it out.
    Since skalaki was first with the answer, I awarded the 'solved' there. DH's comments were further helpful.

  • How to cut and paste multiple items

    How can you cut and paste multiple items on the clipboard?

    Just go to Security & Privacy, unlock it with your admin password...
    ...and under the "General" tab allow applications... tick "Anywhere". After the install, I'd change it back. You can also just control-click the app/installer and select "Open" - you'll get a warning that the app is from an unidentified developer, but it will open.
    Good luck,

  • How to cut and paste subtitles (with formatting)?

    I realize this is probably trivial once you see it ... but it's not obvious to me. Couldn't find it in Help or in Apple's FindOutHow movie.

  • How to Cut and Paste (and delete)

    So I doubled down last month and got a new Bold and a Playbook.  This despite poor reviews and RiM's  bad press.
    The reason is that I wanted my Playbook to replace my notebook when at home and traveling.  Well, I blew out my knee playing sports and have been working from home post-surgery.  Playbook is great for couch while knee cup and iced.
    My very big frustration - and it really affects my work capability - is the Playbook's capability at cutting and pasting.  I need to be able to cut and paste links and text and edresses from emails and internet and msword to each other.  Is this possible outside word to go?  How?  Relatedly, I need to be able to delete and edit the text of forwarded emails, so I can remove ill-advised intermediate commentary.
    For a tablet whose competitive advantage MUST be ease of business use, these are big issues.  If these capabilities aren't there on the Playbook, I would implore RIM to address and other forum users to lobby for same.  RIM has to get these kinds of issues right to survive.
    Thanks in advance.
    P.S. - I searched topics and didn't find answer.
    P.P.S. - I also badly need the ability to redline or mark my changes in word to go.  Crucial!

    Looks to me like the decision was made to disable copy and paste in bridged apps maybe for security reasons. Seems to be a bit erratic too as some discussions include people that claim to be able to do it, maybe it's OS version dependant. Would have been nice if we could have been given the option though!
    To me it's issues like this that make the Playbook seem more like a beta level rushed to market device than a fully developed business tool. And now RIM can't even get the functions that would make what is great hardware truly useful within a reasonable timescale!

  • Framemaker10: can't cut and paste tables, rows, or columns

    When I select a table row, copy, and then try to paste it as a new row, only text pastes in. When I Edit>Paste Special, the only options provided are Text and Unicode Text.
    I used to be able to cut and paste rows but that is no longer an option. Has anyone experienced this? Know a fix?
    Editing my maker.ini files does not fix it.

    Exactly how are you attempting to copy/paste?
    For a whole table, I select the marker, copy, paste wherever.
    For a row, I'm able to position my cursor in a row, highlight the row, then paste either at the end of that table or separately.
    Haven't tried columns, but they probably work the same way.
