Copy

You can copy an element from the application tree view and use it as needed. This can be helpful if you need to write a customized component finder using particular application elements from the tree view.

In the tree view, select and right-click an element, click Copy, and then click Sub Tree or Node, depending on what type of a tree element you require.

To copy the selected subtree element, you can also use Ctrl+C.

The Sub Tree action copies the root element with all of its subelements as an XML string, which looks similar to the following:

<DIV class="teaser__description" der_rendered="y" der_x="1103" der_y="294" der_width="270" der_height="20">
 <SPAN class="teaser__nowrap" der_rendered="y" der_x="1103" der_y="295" der_width="135" der_height="17">
   Text
   <SPAN class="teaser__age" der_rendered="y" der_x="1222" der_y="299" der_width="16" der_height="13">
     0+
   </SPAN>
 </SPAN>
</DIV>

The Node action copies only the root element as an XML string, which looks similar to the following for the same element:

<DIV class="teaser__description" der_rendered="y" der_x="1103" der_y="294" der_width="270" der_height="20"/>

The element is copied to the clipboard.
