Copying Menu Items

You are able to copy menu items, such as buttons, drop zones, and text objects, within
an existing menu or from one menu to another. You can even copy multiple items at
once. See

Selecting Multiple Menu Items

for more information.

The copied items retain all attributes of their original, including assigned assets and, in
the case of buttons, their target settings. The new items have a higher priority than the
original items. See

About Button Numbers

for information on how you can modify the

item priorities.

There are several issues that can cause a copy operation to fail.

• You are not allowed to copy items that are incompatible with their destination (such

as copying a drop zone to a layered menu).

• You are not allowed to copy buttons to a menu that would cause it to exceed the

maximum allowed number of buttons. Menus with a 4:3 aspect ratio can have a
maximum of 36 buttons. Menus with a 16:9 aspect ratio can have a maximum of 18
buttons.
