Copying from one drawing to another.

I am using R14 which suits my hobby needs which are drawing model parts for photo-etching.

I have started a new drawing for which I need parts from an earlier drawing.

 

The only way I have found to complete this task is copying to the clipboard, then pasting to the new drawing.

I then find that I have an assembly rather than a collection of lines and circles etc and modification is not possible, eg, substituting a larger diameter or deleting one part of the drawing.

 

I would guess I am missing something pretty simple!

 

Thanks, Peter.

When you brought the objects from one drawing into the other they were treated as a "block" thus the reason behind JDM's advice to use the EXPLODE command to break them back down to their original separate entities.
