Description

Pastes drawing properties between objects.

Syntax

iOptions

Define which attribute should be copied, using bit-field schema: bit 0 = copy "rule"; bit 1 = copy "fill"; bit 2 = copy "opacity"; bit 3 = copy "dynamic engrave"; bit 4 = copy "shape".

0 - show dialog box

1 - copy border color

2 - copy fill color

4 - copy opacity

8 - copy runaround

16 - copy shape

31 - copy all

If zero,  a dialog box is shown to select what to copy, automatically selecting what is available.

Remarks

Select the source object and copy it to clipboard by CTRL-C or similar. Then, select target objects and run the EditPasteAttrib command.

Properties are copied only if targets support any of them (ie: no fill attributes copied into a rule). If a source attribute is not present, but pasted, the default attribute values are used.

The method returns False for success.

Examples

Page.EditPasteAttrib (1+2) -> copy rule and fill attributes

Page.EditPasteAttrib (16) -> copy shape (and hot-spot) only

Page.EditPasteAttrib (31) -> copy all attributes

Page.EditPasteAttrib (0) -> display dialog box to select what to copy

Context
