I have a subshape with particular behavior set up for within a group shape. This becomes messed up when dropped on to the page.
I want to copy-paste the subshape and drop it immediately in to the same group shape, I know how to drop a shape in to a group but this does not work with copy-paste the shape ends up on the page first each time which messes up the formulas.
How to drop a subshape on paste immmediately in to the same group shape? Thank you for sharing your insights!
To copy and paste a subshape into the same group shape and ensure that its particular behavior is preserved, you can follow these steps:
Select the subshape you want to copy.
Use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+C (Windows) or Command+C (Mac) to copy the subshape.
Click on the group shape that you want to paste the subshape into to select it.
Use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+V (Windows) or Command+V (Mac) to paste the subshape into the group shape.
By default, when you paste a copied shape, it will be placed in the center of the page. However, if you hold down the Shift key while pasting, the shape will be pasted in its original position. So, to ensure that the subshape is dropped immediately into the same group shape, hold down the Shift key while pasting.
