It "seems" as though it works.. even in TIA11.. but it does not. At least in TIA13 the cut function works.. in TIA11 it did not. The steps to follow are: 1. press on the line number to select the whole number 2. CTRL-X to do the Windows cut action. 3. select the line number where you wish to insert the info. 4. (bonus step.. see below) 5. CTRL-V to do a Windows paste action. 6. Compile the program to finalise the changes In some situations you have a problem and you will need to do step 4 also. if you wish to insert a bool above a structure you will also have to do: 4. Right mouse button & select the "insert row" to make an empty space open. Luckily the program has no ill effects when doing the above steps. These can also be done to move structures. If you were using TIA11 step 2 will be in x2 steps. 2a. CTRL-C to do the Windows copy action. 2b. DEL button to delete the complete row. I hope this helps you. w LATE NOTE The above answer was given as if meant for design environment Step7 (TIA Portal). The answer was asked (originally) under WinCC (TIA Portal).
