Copy and Paste Wizard formulae

The "Copy" and "Paste" options within a Wizard’s menu enable easy replication of Expression Editor formulae. This is especially useful when a single type of formula must be reproduced identically or with minor modifications throughout a Procedure.

To begin using this feature refer to the example below.

1. First, configure one of the Wizards, explained in depth below, as desired.

2. Then, click the chevron () and select "Copy" from the provided menu, as shown below.

   

   The Wizard’s XML text is then copied to the Clipboard. The example above places the following text into the Clipboard:

   <Calculation Version="1">

   <Wizard WizardName="Legacy calculation Editor" WizardID="868a333a-ba03-4cd8-9bb3-68ab802b16c2">

   <Properties Expression1="&lt;Calculation Version=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&#xD;&#xA; &lt;Expression calc=&quot;250&quot; /&gt;&#xD;&#xA; &lt;Wizard WizardName=&quot;Value Selector&quot; WizardID=&quot;b2e4816d-4259-4677-a20e-53d538dfb708&quot;&gt;&#xD;&#xA; &lt;Properties NumericValue=&quot;250&quot; /&gt;&#xD;&#xA; &lt;/Wizard&gt;&#xD;&#xA;&lt;/Calculation&gt;" Expression2="&lt;Calculation Version=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&#xD;&#xA; &lt;Expression /&gt;&#xD;&#xA; &lt;Wizard WizardName=&quot;Value Selector&quot; WizardID=&quot;b2e4816d-4259-4677-a20e-53d538dfb708&quot;&gt;&#xD;&#xA; &lt;Properties /&gt;&#xD;&#xA; &lt;/Wizard&gt;&#xD;&#xA;&lt;/Calculation&gt;" Operator1="&gt;" />

   </Wizard>

   <Expression calc="@GetValue(@ParentNode(@CurrentNode()), &amp;NULL) &gt; 250" />

   </Calculation>

   This text is understood by the Wizard interface and will be available for pasting as appropriate.

3. Navigate to the Procedure Node where you wish to paste the configured Wizard.

4. Click the chevron () and select "Paste" from the menu.

   Note: The "Paste" option is unavailable after following the steps above if the target Wizard uses a different data type than the source Wizard (clipboard data). In this case, the "Paste Expression" function must be used, and the expression must be corrected to provide the correct data type in the Calculation Expression Editor.

   

5. The target Wizard will now adopt the same settings as the source Wizard.
