# Copy and paste

Copy and paste annotations, and paste images.

## Copying annotations

1. Select one or more annotations
2. Press **Cmd/Ctrl+C** to copy
3. Press **Cmd/Ctrl+V** to paste

Pasted annotations appear slightly offset from the originals so you can see them.

## Cutting

- **Cmd/Ctrl+X** — Cut (copy and delete)

## Pasting images

You can paste images from your clipboard:

1. Copy an image from anywhere (browser, another app)
2. In hypershot, press **Cmd/Ctrl+V**
3. The image appears as a Media annotation

## Multi-frame captures

Annotations aren't tied to a frame — they appear on every frame of a
multi-frame capture, so there's no need to copy them from frame to frame.

## Cross-document paste

Currently, copy/paste works within a single document. To move annotations between documents:
1. Export the first screenshot
2. Import it as an image in the second

## Tips

- **Duplicate** — Copy then paste for quick duplication
- **Offset paste** — Pasted items are slightly offset, drag to position
- **Paste images** — Great for adding logos, icons, reference images
