Copy and Paste

Cut, Copy, and Paste work similar to how they work in other programs, with one important difference: When you cut or copy dots or lines, what you are actually copying is the locations of those dots or lines on the picture. When you paste dots or lines, you will actually be pasting the locations of the dots or lines, in effect, moving them to new locations.

When pasting dots or lines, the result will be different depending on whether anything is currently selected or not. When nothing is selected, all of the dots or lines with corresponding information on the clipboard will be moved to their new locations. For any dot or line information on the clipboard which does not have a corresponding dot or line in the picture window, a new dot or line may be placed.

When there is something selected, those selected dots or lines will be moved using the information on the clipboard. If there is information about more dots or lines on the clipboard than there are dots or lines selected, some information from the clipboard will not be used, and only the selected dots or lines will be moved. If there are more dots and lines selected than those on the clipboard, some of the selected dots or lines will become unselected, and the ones that remain selected will be moved.

Copying dots will also copy information about any lines connected to any of the dots copied, and copying lines will also copy information about the dots on each end of every line copied. Normally cutting can be thought of as copying and deleting combined into one operation, but with Morpheus Photo Mixer, copying will remember which dots or lines the locations correspond to, and cutting will not.
