Copy a section or a block to use it again on another page, in another project, or in place of a block you already have. You can also copy only a block's design, its colors, spacing and size, and paste it onto other blocks. On Windows, use Ctrl wherever this article says ⌘, and Alt for ⌥.
Copy and paste a section or a block
Open your project in Fantasma.
Click the section or block you want to copy on the canvas, or click its row in the Sections list in the left sidebar.
Press ⌘C to copy it, or ⌘X to cut it. Cut removes it from the page at once; ⌘Z brings it back.
Select where it should go. You can switch to another page first, or open another project. The copy stays on your computer's clipboard.
Press ⌘V. With nothing selected, nothing is pasted.
The same actions are in the menu you get when you right-click a section or a block, under Clipboard: Cut, Copy, Paste and Paste in place. To copy several items at once, select them all first, then right-click any one of them. Select blocks inside a section shows how.
Where the copy lands depends on what you select before you paste:
You copied
You selected
The copy goes
A section
A section
After the selected section.
A block
A section
At the end of the section.
A block
A block that holds other blocks, such as a Group
Inside it, at the end.
A block
Any other block
Right after it.
A section pastes only next to another section, and only on a page where that kind of section is allowed. When a paste does not fit, a message says why.
When you paste into another project, the images in the copy are uploaded to that project. They count toward its image limit, which Limits lists.
Replace a block with Paste in place
Paste in place puts the copy where the selected item is and removes the item.
Copy one block or one section.
Select the block or section you want to replace.
Press ⇧⌘V, or right-click it and select Clipboard > Paste in place.
Paste in place takes one copied item. A copied section replaces only a section, and a copied block only a block; anything else shows a message instead. The Keyboard page in Account settings calls this shortcut "Paste and replace"; it is the same action.
Copy a block's design onto other blocks
Copy style copies the design settings of a block or section: everything in the right sidebar except its content, such as the text, image or link, and the settings under Advanced. The values set for tablets and phones come with it.
Select the block whose design you like.
Press ⌥⌘C, or right-click it and select Styles > Copy style.
Select the block or blocks that should look the same. To select several, hold Shift and click each one on the canvas.
Press ⌥⌘V, or right-click one of them and select Styles > Paste style.
Each selected block takes the settings it shares with the copied one. Paste a heading's style onto a paragraph, for example, and the paragraph takes the heading's colors and spacing. A section's style pastes onto sections, and a block's style onto blocks. Fantasma keeps the copied style while this browser tab stays open, across the pages of the project. A reload, another tab or another project starts without it.
To make every button or heading in the theme look the same, change its look once for the whole site instead: Change how every button looks.
Duplicate
To copy a block or section right next to itself, select it, or several at once, and press ⌘D, or right-click it and select Duplicate. The copy appears after it.
