Grass Valley K2 Dyno PA v.1.5 - Manual (Page 37)

Copying assets
If you copy and paste an asset on the same K2 system, K2 Dyno PA pastes a shortcut,
or reference, to the original asset rather than an entirely new copy. If you drag-and-drop
an asset within a K2 system, the new asset is a reference to the existing asset unless
you specify otherwise in the Users & Preferences section of the menu. If you copy
and paste from one K2 system to another, an entirely new copy is created on the
destination K2 system.
1. To copy an asset, right-click on the asset and select Copy .
2. To paste a shortcut reference to an asset on the same K2 system, right-click on the
Asset List pane in the bin where you want the copied asset, and select Paste . To
paste an entirely new copy of the asset, whether on the same K2 system or a different
system, select
Paste New .
3. If you paste the asset in the same bin that it was copied from, or give the asset the
name of another existing asset, a message box displays informing you that the asset
will be renamed name_n.To paste the asset, click
Proceed .
