After you have finished editing the sequence, you can move the calls back.
The command paste one call, or pressing function key control-F8,
will move the nearest call from the clipboard back to the active sequence.
There are a few tricky issues involved with this process. Sd assumes
that you want the indicated call replaced, even if the formation is different.
For example, if the call in the clipboard was `swing thru', and you have
changed the formation to left-handed waves, it will still do a (right) swing thru.
If the formation has changed radically, the interpretation may be very different.
If there are sex-dependent calls and you have rearranged people, things might
turn into something very different from the original sequence.
There is one case in which Sd will alter a call while it is being pasted.
If a call has a designator like `boys' or `heads', and the formation
is geometrically the same as before, Sd will try to change the designator
to get the equivalent geometrical effect. For example, if the pasted call had
been `boys run' from waves in which the boys were looking out, and you
edit the sequence so that the formation is once again waves, but with some
other people looking out, the call will be changed to `heads run' or whatever.
Of course, if you had originally said `leads run' no change would be
required.
Whenever a designator is changed, or whenever the formation in which the pasted
call is performed is different from the original formation, Sd prints a warning.
You may find a change from `boys run' to `side corners run' to be
unwelcome.
It may happen that the pasted call is illegal in the new formation. If that
happens, the call will not be pasted, Sd will print an error message,
and you will have to take further action.
