Stateflow

Accessing the Clipboard Object

The Clipboard object (there is only one) provides an interface to the clipboard used in copying Stateflow objects. You cannot directly create or destroy the Clipboard object as you do other Stateflow API objects. However, you can attach a handle to it to use its properties and methods to copy Stateflow objects.

You create a handle to the Clipboard object by using the sfclipboard method as follows:

• cb = sfclipboard
  

You create a handle to the Clipboard object (there is only one) with the following command:

• cb = sfclipboard
  

Clipboard objects have two methods, copy and pasteTo, that together provide the functionality to copy objects from one object to another. The copy method copies the specified objects to the Clipboard object, and the pasteTo method pastes the contents of the Clipboard to a new container.
