Transfer objects from other layers

Transfer objectsObjects may be copied from any other layer to a stencil layer. To do so:

  1. Select the Destination layer (the stencil layer to which the object will be added).
  2. Select a source layer from the list. Note: Only visible layers are listed.
  3. Specify the size of the copy. Choosing 1:1 creates a copy with the same size as the original. Choosing Oversize creates a copy whose height and width are increased as specified.
  4. Use the left mouse button to draw a selection rectangle around the openings to copy. Only openings on the chosen layer are selected. The selection modes are described in the Graphic display section.
  5. Click on the Accept button to copy the selected objects.

The Undo transfers button deletes all objects that have been transferred from other layers.

Auto-transfer objects from panel frame

Note: These operations are only possible when working with panels created by the Macaos panel module.

Use the Transfer tooling holes to stencil to copy all tooling holes from the panel frame to the stencil.

Use the Undo tooling holes to delete all copied tooling holes from the stencil.
