Clipboard Support

The an.factory clipboard works just like the clipboard in other applications. It allows you to place an Object or a copy of an Object upon the clipboard and then paste that Object elsewhere within a file or another file.

You can Cut/Copy either a single Object or a Collection of Objects onto the clipboard.

You can only paste from the clipboard to the current location in a file if it makes sense to do so. For example:

The an.factory clipboard is "local" to the application, and only an.factory Objects can be placed upon it.

an.factory does not support the system clipboard, so it is not possible to cut and paste between an.factory and other applications. I don't think this is a major drawback because I cannot think of any circumstances where you would wish to do this!
