Lift and stamp screen control parameters

You can “lift,” or copy, certain parameters from a screen control and “stamp” them onto other screen controls. This makes it easy to give multiple screen controls the same size, appearance, and text attributes to create a uniform look in your layout. Parameters affected by lift and stamp include the parameters in the Appearance and Text Labels headings in the Screen Control Inspector (except the control type) as well as the size of the screen control.

  • Control-click the screen control in the workspace, then choose Lift Attributes from the shortcut menu.

Stamp parameters onto another screen control

    You can Shift-click to select multiple screen controls, then Control-click the selection.
