Transferring Unit Properties
You can copy most of the properties from one unit to another or save them to a WLP file using the import and export tool. The exceptions are:
- user access rights;
- unit group membership;
- information about the creator and the account.
To copy the access rights and the unit group membership, you can create a copy of the unit (the icon) and in the Creator field, select the user whose account the unit should belong to.
To export unit properties, select the Export to WLP item in the user menu and select Unit in the Export from drop-down list. See a detailed guide here.
To add the properties of one unit to another using a WLP file, select the Import from WLP item in the user menu and follow the guide.
