Using the Copy As Command

Using the Copy As Command

If you make changes to a mapping, but you do not want to overwrite the original mapping, you can make a copy of the changed mapping by clicking Mappings > Copy As. When you use Copy As, the copy of the mapping contains the changes and the original mapping does not reflect these changes.
You can only use Copy As within the same folder. When you use Copy As, the mapping must be open in the workspace.
To use the Copy As command to copy a mapping:
  1. Open a mapping in the Mapping Designer workspace.
  2. Click Mappings > Copy As.
  3. Enter the new mapping name.
  4. Click OK.
    You cannot use Copy As to copy shortcuts.
