e.g Copying Node 33, or Pasting 3 display items to frame 0.
A regular copy is defined as follows.
The LEDs and/or switches are copied using newly assigned LED Grps.
Common Control Status LEDS are an exception - all similar types share the same Grp. e.g. A
copied and pasted Signal Silence would retain the LED Grp of the source.
All attributes (tags, flags, etc.) are replicated.
If IO Corrs is checked, then these too are assigned to the new copy. This is a "deep" copy.
If IO Corrs is not checked, then of course they are not copied. This is the "shallow" copy.
A Reference copy is defined as follows.
New LEDs and switches are defined, but they retain the LED Grp of the source.
If any 3 POSITION SLIDE SWITCH is encountered while attempting a "Reference Copy" of
individual items, a complete adder or an entire annunciator, an error message is displayed and
a roll back of the operation occurs.
Both the new copy and the source (and any subsequent reference copies) will be marked with
an asterisk to warn the user that the items are 'linked" or cross referenced. A change to one
(e.g. addition of CORRS) affects the others.
Number of copies specifies the number of copies to make. The paste operation will
attempt to make the specified number of copies. If the capacity of
the destination is exceeded a message will be displayed to inform
the user how many were successfully made.
Make New Copy Choose this option to make an unrelated replica of the source.
Copy I/O Correlations If this option is checked, the new display item(s) will be correlated
to the same circuits and devices as the source.
Make Reference Copy Choose this option to make a reference copy of the source.
