Overview

PhixFlow provides the option for copying models and modelling objects in your current PhixFlow instance. Objects can be moved to a separate instance of PhixFlow via the Export facility.

Copy

Copying models and modelling objects within a single instance of PhixFlow:

Option 1  Copy a single object in a model

1. Right-click on any individual object.
2. In the popup menu, select Copy Object.

Option 2  Copy multiple objects in a model

1. Open any model and select the objects to copy.
2. Right-click on the model canvas (not on the selected objects) and .
3. In the popup menu, select Copy Selected Objects.

Option

1. Right-click on any individual object and select Copy object from the menu.

3  Multiple objects in different models

1. Open the the Administration menu

   Insert excerpt
   _administration _administration nopanel true

   → Copy Configuration.
2. Drag the required objects from the repository onto the Copy Configuration window.
3. Click Copy Configuration when ready.

Export

Objects are exported from one instance of PhixFlow to another via export, such as promoting changes from a development instance to a live instance. See Export Configuration for full details.

Moving Models Between Instances

You may have several instances of PhixFlow running, for example one for developing models and applications and one for running them. To move objects between different instances, export them from one instance (the source instance) and import them to another (the target instance); see Export Configuration and Import Configuration.

If the target instance has an object:

• that matches one in the import, PhixFlow overwrites it with the imported object
• that does not match one in the import, PhixFlow permanently deletes the object from the target instance.
