Copy a page to reuse it somewhere else in your workspace, or in another workspace.

Copy and paste a page #

  1. Right-click the page you want to copy. This works on a row in a table and on a page in your sidebar. In the sidebar you can also hover over the page and click ⋯.
  2. Choose Copy.
  3. Right-click where you want the copy to go: another page, a table, or an empty part of the sidebar.
  4. Choose Paste.

Right-click a page to Copy or Paste it

Choose what comes with it #

Click the arrow next to Paste to choose:

  • Paste: the page and its content.
  • Paste with Atoms: also bring the Atoms captured on the page.
  • Paste with Properties: also bring its table column values.
  • Paste with Atoms and Properties: bring everything.

Copy between workspaces #

Copy a page in one workspace, switch to another workspace in the same browser, and paste it there.

Duplicate and Move #

  • Duplicate makes a copy right next to the original. It is also in the page’s ⋯ menu.
  • Move moves the page instead of copying it. Choose its new home in Select New Location.

Tip: To reuse part of a page, select the text and copy it as usual. Whole sections cannot be copied on their own.
