Surface "Paste To" Option

When I right click on my surface in the prospector tab I do not have the "Paste To" option. I want to paste my corridor surface to my design surface. What am I doing wrong?

Desirea, in 2006 (not sure if it's different in 2007) you need to actually export the corridor surface to be an independent surface
object before it can be pasted into a finished surface. Corridor --> Export --> Corridor Surfaces.

After that, you'll be able hit to pick "Paste Surface" on the Existing Surface copy (or Finished Surface) and paste the design
surface into it.

Hope that helps,
Trevor

Thanks for the suggestion. I have actually exported the corridor to a surface and it shows up in the surface list but when I right click on it, I do not have the "paste to" option. I also do not have that option on any of my other surfaces in the same file.

To paste a surface, you need to go to the surface that you want to PASTE
TO, expand the definitions tree, and right-click on EDITS. From there,
you will be able to paste any surface into that one.

Jason,

Thank you. I finally found it. I was attempting to paste from the wrong location.

Thanks again.
