RE: Tabular Editor shortcut to duplicate measures

Does anyone know what is the keyboard shortcut to duplicate measures in Tabular Editor.

It is absolutely driving me crazy. I am debugging faulty measures / enhancing current measures and need to duplicate measures in the editor.

I can't find a way. CTRL+C and CTRL+V doesn't work.

I am on free version 2.16.7.

Hi @smpa01 ,

 

All objects in the TOM Explorer can be copied and pasted with Tabular Editor. You can even copy and paste between different instances of Tabular Editor, and even between Tabular Editor 2.x and Tabular Editor 3. You can use the familiar keyboard shortcuts:

  • Edit > Copy (CTRL+C)
  • Edit > Cut (CTRL+X)
  • Edit > Paste (CTRL+V)

Using CTRL+C & CTRL+V works well in my end, please check and try again.
