Attributes without default values will have a null value.
If the target feature class or subtype has default values, feature-linked annotation, or connectivity rules defined in a geodatabase, the copy will have the default values and behavior appropriate for the target layer. When the source and target layers have different schemas, a copy of the geometry (but not the attributes) of the selected feature is created. However, you can copy polygons into a line layer.Īttributes will be copied and pasted along with the geometry if the source and target layers are the same or if they are in different layers that have identical schemas.
You can copy a feature and paste it into another layer, but it must be the same type of geometry (such as point, line, or polygon) as the one from which you copied. You can copy an existing feature by using the tools on the Standard toolbar.
