Repeated pasting of data

The Repeated Paste function enables you to quickly place several copies of a selection of demand data at regular, defined intervals.

To Repeat-paste data into a demand graph:

  1. Ensure that the graph is unlocked.
  2. Select and copy the data you want to paste.
  3. Move the cursor to the time interval where you want the data to be pasted and right-click once.
    Warning: Do not left-click at this point as this will change the selection and result in data being pasted only once.

    The start time is indicated by a small green triangle on the horizontal axis.

  4. From the right-click menu, select Edit > Repeated Paste.

    The ‘Repeated Paste’ dialog box is displayed.

  5. Enter the Number of repetitions (the number of times you want to paste the copied data).

    Select the Duration to paste over option and enter the duration (in seconds) over which you want to paste the copied data.

  6. To specify the interval between each of the repetitions, enter a number in the box labelled ‘Paste data every n seconds’.
    Warning: This interval is the time between the start of each repetition of data: a 10s interval will paste your data anew every 10s from the first time it was pasted.
  7. Click the OK button.

    The data is pasted according to the number of repetitions you specified or over the time interval you entered.
