Working with Applications and Screens

Publication 2711-6.0

This section shows how to copy screens from one application to
another using the Copy and Paste commands on the Edit menu.
Only one application can be open in the workspace but you can run
multiple sessions of PanelBuilder.

See page 6–18 for details on what to do when copying or moving a
screen to an application that was created for a different type of
terminal.

To copy screens from one application to another:

1. Select the screens you want to copy from the application file

window.

2. Click the Copy tool on the tool bar or Choose Copy Screen from

the Edit menu.

PanelBuilder copies the screens to the clipboard.

3. Save the application file (if necessary).

4. Close the application file.

Or start another session of PanelBuilder.

5. Open the application file to receive the screen.

6. Click the Paste tool on the tool bar or choose Paste Screen from

the Edit menu.

7. PanelBuilder pastes the screen into the application file window

of the target application with the same name and number.

If the screen number exists in the target application, the screen is
assigned the next available number.

In the following example, the Feed Pump screen is copied from the
Sample application file to the Test application file.
