Data exchange in the Tiles program

In this step, the Cut, Copy, and Paste items on the Edit menu associated with the Tiles program are enabled when appropriate. This means that a user can cut or copy selected tiles onto the clipboard and then paste them back into another Tiles document component or into any other type of document that can embed models.

The Presentation framework provides a mechanism for simple embedding in which the embedded component floats in a frame in the embedding view. You can resize and move the embedded component.

For example, this shows what a Mars document component looks like when it is embedded in a Tiles document:


When the user selects the embedded Mars component, the Mars menu is activated.
