Copying items to other projects?

 

Per the What's New Guide for Contour 2.0, this is the method for copying items from other projects:

 

 

4.7.3 COPYING ITEMS FROM OTHER PROJECTS

You can copy items from other projects using the "Copy" button. When copying items, you have the option of retaining a link to the original item. This is similar to the cross-project linking feature in 1.7.4.

 

 

I tried to use the Copy button, but the pop-up screen only allows me to specify destinations within the current project.  How do I copy the item to a different project?

There was a bug with copy in version 2.0.0 fixed in 2.0.2 which is the latest.  Link to patches pages

 

 

Note - when you copy items, they need to be copied to sets of the same type - so if you have a group of requirements in both projects, items can be copied back and forth.  If you have a set of change requests in one project but not the other, item's can't be copied until you create a set of change requests to recieve the item.

This has actually been fixed in the 2.0.3. Sorry for the miscommunication.

Where can I find the ZIP file to upgrade to 2.0.3?  On jamasoftware.com/download, it looks like the most recent version is 2.0.2.  Let me know.  Thanks!
