can you multi-select and copy / paste?

i have nested frames, text and path (obviously, could re-draw the path).

i'd like to take the whole element from one prezi to another, all at once.

thanks for a quick reply (on a summer friday).

Hi Greg,

am I quick enough? :)

well you can't copy paste between Prezis using the online version but you CAN using the desktop (as far as frames and labels are considered)

  Even though I can understand your free & fee strategy, the copy & paste between prezi documents is the fundamental function to have enough experience with the Prezi. Please, be more strategic at other features. :)

  Forty4 is right.
  
  I'm currently using a paid version of Prezi (Enjoy account). Copy/paste between prezis would be GREAT. A fundamental booster for my use of the tool (and for my word of mouth about it).
  
  + you should really emphasize the multiple-object selection. I've been trying ctrl+click, like I do in PowerPoint... and only after several tries I realized i had to press shift+click

  Just another suggestion: you should render the multi-object selection a transparent object, so that the user can choose which elements are selected

Peter,
I can't get this to work, even on the desktop version. The desktop hangs up and freezes.
Here's my process:
1) Open Prezi #1
2) Select 1 or more items on the stage
3) Choose Edit>Copy
4) Save and Close
5) Open Prezi #2
6) Choose Edit>Paste

Then the Prezi#2 Hangs up and eventually I have to force quite.

Is there anything I'm doing wrong?

Drew - in theory, and mostly in practice, this should work fine. Except for 'edit' is not a menu within the desktop (can be confusing, adobe air menu on top says edit) - please just press ctrl+c, ctrl+v (ctrl even on the mac)

Adam,
Thanks for the response.
Still no luck. I am on a mac and I tried to use ctrl-c and ctrl-v.
I hear a sound everytime I hit ctrl v, but nothing pastes. It's not crashing... which is good.

Any other ideas?

Even though it's great to have the copy paste feature at all it's quite useless if it doesn't work with files. Since Prezis (at least the way I create them) are very visual the biggest part of the work is to select, upload and arrange the pictures, videos etc.

Therefore, I think it should be on your priority list to work on that feature. It's fine if that stays an for-paying-users-only option though, since it is primarily neccesary for those who create lots of presentations. Yet for those, it would improve the workflow like no other feature.

Fo me it doesn't work in anyway! Neither online thann offline. I have a ProAccount. I tried the medntioned ctrl-shift-v trick as well. But nope. I can not even copy&paste in the same prezi. It's really anoying, because I built different in different prezis, and would lile to make some overview stuff, without drawing all the same, again and again.

Is there any way, to get arount - et satisfaction :-) ?

Maybe nice as well to be able to create more figures, like triangles, quadrants in different colours, More text coulors & size. Maybe to possibility to create arrows or lines which you can bend?! Use picture as start image as background. Oh, i still didn't find out how i can put a soundfile in my presentation as background music.
Somebody any idea?
Tnx

Not having this feature is having an effect on Prezi.com's bottom line. Seriously, my group has two paid accounts, but we don't use them. We sign into the account of the original person who found prezi, because the only way to take advantage of work already done is to copy the whole presentation to a new one within the same user. We would buy a half dozen more licenses tomorrow if we could send presentations to each other and copy and paste sections from it.

Jim, Saurabh .Tanish. Arora,

could you please try the next thing. Open a prezi you own. The url should look like this

http://prezi.com/tvchl3dm4qpa/edit/ (this link is not working this is only an example)

Now append experimental/copypaste to the end of the url

http://prezi.com/tvchl3dm4qpa/edit/ex...

Select elements, and when you see a zebra press ctrl+c

Now open an other prezi with the same extension. And click somewhere (you have to click the browser window to able to use keyboard shortcuts), be sure you are in write menu and press ctrl+v

Jim, if it works, you can buy licenses with your credit card :)

Hi Peter,

by now I am regularly using the copy paste feature (btw: is it still only supported as an experimental feature?). Most of the time it works perfectly but every once in a while my browser (Chrome 4.1.249.1036 on Vista) crashes.

Couldn't figure out so far if there is a specific trigger or if the crashes appear purely random.

Regards,
Thomas

  hi! what you can do is login in your pro account, then search for your original presentation (give it a unique title or something so it's easy xD) and then go to the bottom of that presentation and click Make a copy. then, your full presentation from your simple account should show up on your Your Prezis tab :)

Cntrl+c/cntrl+v are not working with a text copy in either the browser or in my desktop (30-day trial) version. I didn't know about the cntrl+shift+v for paste. Guess I will have give that a go.

I'm trying to copy and paste several text objects and a frame at once.

In the IE8 browser, I tried to copy from one prezi to another with these "Edit" commands and no success.

So what is the actual process, and maybe it could be documented better?

Thanks!

Seems to me that one year ago is long enough! Time for the company to deliver a really updated system which solves other issues apart from copying from one Prezi to another, including:

A proper "delete a path item" rather than the present convoluted method which is not shown anywhere in the system

Proper menu to embed sound

Autorun facility

Proper manual easily accessible and shown in main menu

Good though Prezi undoubtedly is you need to keep ahead of the curve!

This issue became my main problem recently. I decided to go with univ lectures using prezi, but lectures change every semester. Hence presentation has to be altered as well. Unfortunatelly changing the presentation without possibility to copy/paste will be a disaster and now I am rather inclined NOT to continue lectures in prezi.

Wiktor,

Try the following:
open prezi nr 1 ('prezi1.pez'). Copy something (CTRL+c).
Then go to file menu, and open another prezi ('prezi2.pez').

Prezi desktop should open prezi nr 2, thereby closing prezi nr 1.
Now paste...

This works for me ;-0

Kind regards,

Roel

ok now, in PreziDesktop copying with ctrl+c/ctrl+v does work, but you cannot close prezi nr 1 after ctrl+c, because this results in being unable to paste into prezi nr 2. You have to open prezi nr 2 WHILE prezi nr 1 is still opened (eventhough it will result in closing automatically the prezi nr 1).

The only thing that is not being copied is the path (G* guys work this out because setting a path each time is a bit frustrating +70 positions...)

There is a significant problem though with copying in an online version.
Whenever I copy between prezis online and then save the presentation and download it to portable prezi desktop I CANNOT upload it to the web anymore!!! This results in an error message:
Error
Could not retrieve online media availability from server.
Error:onlineMediaAvailabilityError

A little bug of prezi?..

That wasted quite some time of mine to find when this error occurs.

I've checked also if this problem occur if copying in desktop and fortunately you can upload the prezi after copying in prezi desktop.

HI Peter and Adam,

What's up with allowing this problem to run without being fixed for so long? do you have any idea how many man-hours are wasted, just dealing with this glitch, let alone the effect it has on sales and referrals? We have people who ask us all the time about this product - and we wish we could give them a more favorable answer. It seems like copy and paste have been around for years, as long as the clipboard. You copy it to the clipboard and paste from it - any object. What's so hard about that?

Copy and Paste of all objects including images, video and paths would make my life so much easier. I love your Prezi and so do our clients. Each Prezi needs updating for each client, salesperson and content.

I recall being able to do this a while ago, did that feature get removed? Would be a huge help to find a way to do this again. If you could even copy and paste all accept video, that would be big help : )

Thanks!

  The other thing you can do is simply make a copy of the Prezi and change the information in it. This might be useful if you make a "Template" Prezi and copy from there.

  I stand corrected! Sometimes I get caught between online and desktop. On the Desktop all elements copied and pasted except for paths which I can totally live with.
  
  I do seem to have an issue with clearing the clipboard. Doing some testing and will report findings.
  
  Thank you so much!

Copy and Paste between prezis

You can also paste content copied in one prezi into another prezi. It doesn't matter if you close the original prezi or not, so you can have them both open in different browser windows, or first close the original prezi and open the second one you would like to paste into.

Up until about a week ago, I was able to copy from my prezi into a document so I could create notes to go along with my prezis. Just recently, this is no longer a function. I love being able to create prezis for my classes and allow students to access them online when they are at home, but having to re-type my information for notes and hand-outs is for the birds. I guess I will have to go back to powerpoints.
