Copying and pasting feature attributes for selected features

With Feature Manager, you can copy all the attributes from a selected feature and save them in the local memory so they can be pasted as another feature's attribute values or in a text document. When you paste the attributes into a new feature, values are only pasted for the attribute fields that match the destination feature. For example, if you copy attributes from one feature that has NAM and ZV2 fields and the destination feature only has the ZV2 field, only the ZV2 value is pasted.
