paste in place

[rphiii@adobeforums.com]

is there anyway to paste an object from one file to the next or even within the same file in the same place. something similar to the paste in place function in InDesign ctrl-alt-sft-v? or does one have to always create some sort of guide object or type in the position in the transfrom box?

Rp,

Paste in front (Ctrl+F) or paste in back (Ctrl+B) will give you original position.

Or alt-drag it to a different layer.

Does freehand not have a paste in place feature like flash, all I am trying to do is organise my illustration onto sepearte layers.

Thanks

Then all you have to do is select an object and then click on the layer
to reposition it on that layer. If the selected object is actually a
sub-selected part of a group it will not work, you can only move whole
groups.

FreeHand has 'Paste in Front' and 'Paste Behind'. You must have another item
selected for these to work.

If you check Preferences > Panels >'Clicking on layer name moves selected
objects', then you can send objects to layers easily.
