Edit Menu

The edit menu, allows to copy/cut/paste text or classes (from one diagram to another), to delete unused decision centers or to delete the project element currently displayed in the property panel.
Select: select elements in the current editing class diagram
Undo / Redo: undo / redo an action when editing a text (HTML or Xion) into the main window
Cut / Copy / Paste: cut / copy / paste portions of text (HTML or Xion) in the main window; this functionality uses the java default clipboard; the java clipboard and the system clipboard are synchronized depending on your Java VM and your operating system;
copy / paste representations of classes in class diagrams; this allows classes appear more than once in a class diagram, and in more than one diagram; you can also drag and drop classes from the browser
Move: move a selection (may multiple *) of packages and classes to a package or  pages and directories to a directory, specified thanks to a ackage or directory selector
Duplicate: duplicates a selection (may multiple *) of pages and directories; if the selection is simple, the name of the copy is asked in a dialog; if the selection is multiple, the prefix of the copies is asked in a dialog; this action also duplicates included decision centers; if a decision leads to a file that takes part of the selection, the duplicated decision leads to the duplication of the above target
Remove unused decision center: deletes each unused decision center, i.e. each decision center that no file references
Reserve Decision Center numbers...: reserves ranges of numbers that will not be taken by Netsilon when a new decision center is created
Deletes from model: deletes the selected element; the selected element is the element described by the details panel, at the bottom of the main window, tab Properties; no confirm dialog is showed to prevent errors !
