1.11.1 Copying objects

You can copy objects (activities, connections, fault connections, and link connections) on the canvas. When you select multiple objects, all the selected objects are copied. You can copy objects within the canvas of the business process window, as well as to other applications such as Word and Excel. Note that you can copy start activities and end activities to other applications, but not within the canvas of the business process window.

To copy an object:

  1. Select the object to be copied.
    When copying a connection, select the connection-source and connection-target activities as well. If you do not also select the connection-source and connection-target activities, you cannot copy the connection.
  2. Use one of the following copy methods:
    • Select and right-click the object, and choose Copy.
    • Press CTRL + C.
