Curve Tool: Cutting and Copying Cells

Cell values can be copied to the clipboard for pasting into other cells or into external programs. Cutting cell values initially copies the values to the clipboard and then deletes the cells; see Deleting Cells for more information. Only cells which can be deleted can be cut.

 

Cutting and copying work on individual cells and cell ranges. When cutting or copying with multiple cell ranges selected, the ranges must be the same in one or more dimensions of the selection. That is, they must all contain the same number of rows, but can contain a different number of columns. Or they must all contain the same number of columns, but can contain a different number of rows. If the selection is invalid, cut and copy will not be available.

 

To cut or copy cell values:

  1. Select the cell(s) to be copied; see Selecting Cells.

  2. On the Edit menu, click Cut or Copy as desired.

 

If the Cut and Copy commands are not available on the menu, try changing the selection and repeating the steps above. If Copy is available and Cut is not, then the selection probably includes cells which cannot be deleted. Either change the selection or use Copy.

 

Note: When copying the Interval Type property, a 0 is copied for "Cubic" and a 1 is copied for "Linear". This only appears when pasting to an external application.
