Transfer data from a project to global library

The system manager can transfer information from a project library into the global library.

To transfer data, activate the project library window and from the Library menu, select on of the options:

•	Copy to Global – All - to copy all contents of the project library to the global library (for all families/Item types)

•

Copy to Global – Selected Only - to copy selected components only from the project library to the global library, for the selected family/Item type only. You may select multiple components using right-click and "Select/Deselect" option. As you select components, the "V" icon appears in the left column of the Library Manager window.

Caution Be careful when copying to the Global library. There is no undo option to easily recover from mistakes.

Another option to reuse project component library in another project is to copy the library from one project to another. See Copy libraries between projects paragraph later in this chapter.
