You can use Copy and Paste to copy object and modifier tracks, controllers, objects, and components, depending on what you are working on.

The Controller tools are also available on the Controllers toolbar. This toolbar is hidden by default; to unhide, right-click the toolbar and choose Show Toolbars Controllers: Track View.

Not all tracks can be copied and pasted. The basic restrictions for using Copy and Paste in Track View are:

• Only a single selected item can be copied.
• A copied item can only be pasted onto another item of the same type.
• A copied item can be pasted into a selection of multiple items only if all of the items are of the same type.
