The other way to force the card to be selected is to double click somewhere
where there are no visible objects. This will open the Card Inspector at which
point the menus will work accordingly.

Ill be dammed. Gobsmacked. It appears that the menu *ought* to change
contextually when you click on a card, but doesn't. Right clicking on the card
seems to force the IDE to focus on the card itself. Neat trick. It also reveals
that the IDE was written and intended to allow cut/copy/paste/dupli
Just thought I'd try this out and see if there is another option. If you
right click on a card and dismiss the pop-up menu, then the edit menu
changes to "Cut Card", "Copy Card", "Clear Card", and "Duplicate Card"
although Clear and Duplicate don't seem to do anything. Probably not much

For some reason I've never understood, there is no menu item to copy a
card, but it is easy to do in script or the message box:

Take a look at “copy” in the dictionary… I’ve used this script in a button on a
card I wanted to move:
on mouseUp
copy this card to stack “targetStack"
end mouseUp

Folks:
With all of the new versions and capabilities being added to livecode, I have
found need to copy parts of one stack which is older, to a new stack, which is
new and better. I have found it difficult to use cut and paste to copy groups
or other elements from one stack to another using the
