Is it possible to merge two ggb files into one?

Hi, I have two ggb files with some constructions and now I need both constructions to be in one file but I don't want to make one of them from scratch again. I tried to copy and paste one construction into the file of the other but it didn't work. For some unknown reason I got a duplicate of the same construction that was already in the file.

Is it possible to do this?

Hi,


The trick is: do not close the window.


Objective: merge file A and B into C


1.) Open B.ggb in a new GGB-window

2.) Menue: Edit / Select All

3.) ctrl-C

4.) Menue: File / Open... (or Open Recent) A.ggb

5.) ctrl_V

6.) Menue: Files / Save As (important: not 'save') C.ggb

Hello Rami,

I have tried your method but it is not working :( maybe because the copy paste does not work in GeoGebra from one file to another... i don't know if this is what you mean.

Hi,

I've a similiar problem. Sometimes I have to copy the content of the edit window, but the

object boxes get lost when I try to insert this for a new definition. At the moment I use

a copy from the construction protocol but this is not a very quick method.

Perhaps somebody has a better solution.

Hi


You can select the text in the graphics window, then F3.

Delete, or change in input line text field name, then press Enter.

Double-click on (new) text box in the graphics window and change "latex" and content..

Thank you all! I actually found a solution myself because it was a rather urgent business. I made a tool in one of the files with the relevant input parameters (basically, all free objects) and output parameters (the construction I wanted delivered to the other file) and then simply used the tool in the other file. Thus I avoided the mismatch of the object names.

Well, it was a bit tedious work to do, because of the complexity of the construction and the many objects I had to select as output objects but anyway, it did the trick!

Hello Albena!

I tried your method but I did not know how to use the tool in the other file ? is it using copy paste? or is it by inserting something in the other file?

thanks!
