Cut, Copy, Paste and Undo

The Cut, Copy, Paste, and Undo facilities follows the standard convention for these functions as in
most word processing or drawing software packages.

If you are not familiar with these conventions, the Cut facility, if selected, removes any Picked object
from the badge design. The Cut object is temporarily stored in memory. If the Paste command is
selected next, the Cut object appears in the last selected position on the badge.

The Copy command operates in the same way as the Cut command, but instead of removing the
Picked object a copy is stored in memory and the object remains on the badge. If you then move the
mouse pointer to a new position on the badge and click the left mouse button, selecting the Paste
command from the Edit menu places a copy of the Picked object at the selected position. Each
subsequent use of the Paste command places a copy of the picked object on the badge until either
the Cut or Copy command is used for a different Picked object.
