copy/paste

Is there any way to copy to cliboard ---> paste to current view  VIA the api?

I'm trying to copy dimensions from one view to another, which are basically the same but with some differences.

I don't mind having some dimension missing, but for some reason, some of the dimension cannot be COPIED, so the whole selection isn't copied. I can't find the problematic dimensions, as the error dialog shows some property line to which some dimensions are apparently attached to (if only I could find the problematic dimensions....)

I'm trying to use the api to filter out the uncopiable (don't know if that's a word) dimensions, and just copy the valid ones...

Any help would be appreciated

Thank you
