You can also use the standard editing commands (such as copy, paste, etc.) in the Edit menu of 4D, or the standard keyboard shortcuts.
Note: If you use the standard Paste command while the picture editing area is selected, the Clipboard’s contents are inserted into the currently edited picture. If you use the standard Paste command while the picture list is selected, a new picture is added to the list.
Any modification made to a picture is automatically saved in the library as soon as you click outside of the picture editing area (which means as soon as the editor area “loses” the focus).
Warning: Once the picture has been saved, you cannot undo any of the modifications that you have made to it.
While modifying a picture, you can cancel the last modification made to it by choosing Undo from the Edit menu in 4D, as well as by using the standard shortcut Ctrl+Z (Windows) or Command+Z (Mac OS).
You can also cancel all the modifications made to a picture by choosing Revert... from the File menu of 4D.
