Cut
The Cut command copies the selected text or items to the clipboard and deletes them from their present location.
Copy
The Copy command copies the selected text or items to the clipboard. This can be used to duplicate data within XMLSpy or to move data to another application.
| Note: | When copying from Grid View, the selection is copied using one of two methods: Copy as XML-Text and Copy as Structured Text. The former copies the selection as XML text; the latter copies the selection as a table. Which of these two methods is used when the Copy command is invoked is specified in the Editing section of the Tools | Options dialog. |
Paste
The Paste command inserts the contents of the clipboard at the current cursor position.
Delete
The Delete command deletes the currently selected text or items without placing them in the clipboard.
