Hi,

Good suggestion that has been on out list of things to do since 2010! Hopefully our extra manpower at the moment will allow us to do some work on this. I have created an updated item in our issue tracker http://www.vassalengine.org/tracker/show_bug.cgi?id=13646

So, the short answer is no, you can’t cut and paste between 2 different editor sessions. The long answer is that you can extract the buildfiles from the two modules, edit them with text editors and cut and paste components across manually. See http://www.vassalengine.org/wiki/Creating_Modules#What_is_the_buildfile_and_how_do_I_edit_it.3F for information and note the caveats.

Note that any cut and paste functionality will most likely have limitations. It will copy across the component definitions, but will not copy over any referenced resources like images, charts, pdfs etc.
