Replace dialog box

This dialog box lets you control how selected objects are replaced by those from the Clipboard.

For example, you can use the Scale to Fit option to force a Clipboard object to scale up or down to completely fill the bounding area of the object you are replacing.

Scale to Fit

Forces a Clipboard object to scale up or down to completely fill the bounding area of the original object.

Align to Border

Lets you keep the original proportions of the Clipboard drawing. Use the list box to select a handle on the original object to which Designer can align the Clipboard replacement.

You can only use the Origin list box when the Align to Border option is deselected.

Group Clipboard Objects

Lets you choose one of two ways to replace multiple selected objects with the contents of the Clipboard.

Select this option if you have several objects selected but only one in the Clipboard. Each selected object is replaced with a copy of the Clipboard object.

Deselect this option if you have several objects selected and several in the Clipboard. The first object (from left to right) in the Clipboard replaces the first original object, the second Clipboard object replaces the second original object, and so on.
