Hello everyone,

Is there a way in either Finale 2005 (current version I'm using) or the new 2007 to copy and paste measure based text boxes. I can't seem to find a way to do this. Selecting a text box only allows me to edit it not copy and paste it somewhere else.
Not as far as I know. My usual work-around is to select and open the box I want to copy, copy the contents of the Edit text dialog box, then close the dialog, and close the text block. I move to the page and location where I want to copy the box to, open a new box, and paste in the contents.

On the other hand, if you want to "move" instead of "copy" the text block, this is easily done in the text block attributes dialog: simply determine the values of the text block in the new location, open the text block attributes dialog box of the block you wish to move, and enter the desired location (page, location on the page, and offsets) into the dialog box.
