Copying Properties from one Monitor to Another
Every monitor in a layout has properties related to its appearance that can be configured by
the user, in the Properties pane. The Copy properties tool
copies most of these
properties from one monitor to another of the same type (e.g. audio monitor to audio
monitor, clock to clock, etc.).
To use the Copy properties tool
1In the Layouts tab, click the monitor whose properties you wish to copy to another
monitor of the same type.
The monitor’s boundary box appears.
The Copy properties button becomes available on the toolbar.
2 Click the Copy Properties button to switch into format-painting mode.
3 Point to another monitor of the same kind in the layout.
The pointer changes to a pointing finger , indicating that the properties of the first
monitor (whose boundary box is still shown) can be copied onto the monitor beneath
the pointer.
4 Click the monitor beneath the pointer to copy the properties onto that monitor.
Note: The Copy properties tool does not copy the assignments from one
monitor to another, and it does not copy the size from one monitor to
another.
