You can move objects from one color to another in CubeCAD. You can also move objects from CubeCAD to other modules or among different modules. To transfer an object from its current color group to another color group, first select it in the Project Workspace and right click on its surface to open the contextual menu. Select '''Move To''' from the contextual menu. This menu item opens up to a number of submenus that include CubeCAD and possibly the names of some other [[EM.Cube]] modules. Each submenu leads to yet other submenus that contain the names of all the object groups that are available for object transfer. For instance, if CubeCAD has three color groups, color_1, color_2, color_3, you will see submenus like''' Move To → CubeCAD → Color_1''', '''Color_2''' or '''Color_3'''.Select the desired object group to transfer the selected object to. The transferred object's name is removed from its original color group and is added to the new color group. The color of the transferred object also changes to that of the new color group. In exactly the same way, you can transfer any object from its current group in any module to any other object group in any other module as long as it is listed in the '''Move To''' submenus.
You can also transfer objects from the Navigation Tree. When you import external CAD objects, they are always imported into CubeCAD initially. Then, you have to move them to the right module. In such cases, you can select one of more object names on the Navigation Tree and right click on the highlighted selection to access the '''Move To''' submenus in the contextual menu. If you have highlighted a multiple selection using the '''{key | Ctrl}''' or '''{key | Shift|''' keys, remember to keep holding those keys down when right clicking; otherwise, you will lose the selection.
