Shift multiple levels to new levels

[Jeremy Grigsby]

I searched some for this and if I missed it, I apologize.

Is there any way to cut a group of levels and paste them onto other levels? My example is the part i have drawn is very similar to another I have drawn. I saved the original part as a different name, but all the levels are named in the file. Let's say I am using levels 1-20, and i want to merge the two files. I would like to put them both in the same file because they are mating mold inserts. I want to take level 1-20 and move them to 21-40 before I import the other file so their geometry doesn't overlap on the levels. Is there any way to do this?

i don't think believe there is a mass edit.

Your easiest way might be to renumber the levels one at a time, In level manager right click on the level you would like to renumber and type in the new level number and press enter.

I would think you would need to use the selection tool, 'all' or 'some' to pick out by levels. Then right click levels and choose either copy or move + select to create/name the new level. That should allow moving or copying selective levels to another new level. Try that .

I tried that one. It justs copies all the geometry to one single level.

Oh, I missed the part you wanted to keep the levels separated instead of moving to new level. I think only renumbering levels individually will preserve the names.

Sorry.

No problem.
