Copy and Paste Coordinates
Clicking the 'Copy' button in the Coordinate Bar will save the current X/Y/Z coordinate to the clipboard as a text string. You can then paste the coordinate text back into your drawing to create a text entity, or paste it into any other application, such as MS Word.
Clicking the “Paste” button will set the Coordinate Bar X/Y/Z to whatever coordinate text is currently in the clipboard. This can be used for example to copy coordinate text from a CSV file and paste it into the Coordinate Bar.
