3-10: Copying Between Libraries |
![]() |
The Cross-Library Copy... command of the Facets menu provides a dialog for copying facets between libraries.
The left and right columns show the contents of two different libraries (and the pulldowns above each column let you select the two libraries that you want to use). When there is a facet with the same name in both libraries, the system compares modification dates to determine which is newer, The "Examine Contents" button compares the contents of facets whose dates are different and displays an indication of whether they are actually different or just out of date. The "Examine Contents Quietly" button does the same thing, but it does not explain which differences have been found. The "List differences" button shows all differences in the messages window. | ![]() |
By choosing a facet in the right-hand library and clicking "<< Copy", that facet is copied into the left-hand library. The "Copy >>" button does the reverse. If "Delete after copy" is checked, the buttons change to "<< Move" and "Move >>". If there are subfacets of the copied facet, they are copied; if there are other views of the copied facet ("related views"), they are also copied. Copying of subfacets and related views can be disabled by unchecking the appropriate boxes.
