Copy and paste

In graphical view the “Copy” command in the “Edit” menu, creates a picture of the contents in the window and places it on the clipboard. To see this picture, you can use the “Show Clipboard” command in the “Edit” menu. The picture can be pasted into any graphical document.

Moreover, in graphical view, you can paste pictures directly into the view by using the “Paste” command in the “Edit” menu. Hence, if you want to include more sophisticated graphics in your models, you can use any picture editing application to create a picture, copy it and paste it into a model window. You can select and move pictures in the same way you select and move nodes.

Alternatively, if you have some graphics stored as a “PICT” file, you can include this in your model file, simply by dragging and dropping the file icon from the “Finder” to the DynRisk window where you want the graphics to appear. This will produce a picture object containing the graphics from the file.

Note, however, that this alternative method works only if your version of the MacOS supports “drag and drop” from the “Finder.
