You can copy individual graphical elements to avoid repeated inserting and drawing.
The Plots drop-down list box shows you all time series of the graph window. The plot to which the graphical element to be copied belongs is selected. The Assigned to section contains the assignments specified by you when inserting the graphical element (see ch. Inserting graphical elements).
▪Select the plot where the graphical element is copied to.
▪Specify the assignment as described in the Inserting graphical elements tutorial.
If the graphical element to be copied is to be (irreversibly) deleted after copying,
▪check the Delete original box.
▪Start copying by clicking [OK];
afterwards, the graphical element is copied to the selected time series with the specified assignment (e.g. “Axis (vertical)”).
The copied graphical element is shown approx. one centimetre on the right under the original and becomes the selected graphical element.
Hint: If you want to copy a graphical element to the same time series with the same assignment, you do not need to open this dialog but
▪you can instantly copy a selected element using the keyboard shortcut [Ctrl]+[E].
