Convert to local copy

[OpenIT Solutions]

Hi,

I can see a clone method on the Element Class. But I can't see the equivalent of the menu option Advanced -> Convert Linked Element to Local Copy in the API anywhere. Does the equivalent exist in the API ? Or do I clone the element and add (move) it to the required Package object ?

Regards,

Jon.

Hi,

The GUI equivalent to clone is the copy function of the GUI. It is available in Browser and Diagram (e.g. CTRL + drag). It's not exactly the same as the API clone. In my opinion it's a useful GUI function which offers a lot more than the API clone.

Kind regards,

Helmut
