The capability of copying and pasting diagrams data between diagrams has been improved substantially. In this release it is possible to copy any shape within a single diagrams and paste it into another diagram, together with the entire database structure and all its attributes.
Copying can be done between diagrams in a single project, but also between different projects and instances of AVEVA Diagrams.

When copying between projects it is possible to copy either according to the group structure in the source project, which is then recreated in the destination project, or to paste the copied objects according to the session defaults in the destination project.
When copying branches belonging to pipelines already existing in the destination project, a choice is given whether to create the branches in existing pipelines or to create new pipelines for the copied data.
Benefits
Allows for reuse of data within a project or between projects.
