EHT: Simple Copy & Paste


Duplicating a cobble

Stacks Image 285

Using the EHT Change These Items... dropdown menu option to duplicate a cobbled furnishing.

Note: Make sure you have enough items in your inventory to create these copies.


Step 1

Stacks Image 271

Note: Ensure none of the items are linked. Copying items while linked may result in a wonky cobble once you've pasted it at its new location.

-With the Housing Menu (F5) and EHT on the Select tab

-hover your mouse over the items you want to copy

-press the G key (this is the pre-set keybinding for selecting items in EHT)


Step 2

-Open up the Clipboard by selecting Copy/Paste

-Our options are: Copy and Cut Selection or Copy Selection. Here we choose Copy and Cut because we are taking the items with us.

-Once we confirm, EHT will place the items into our inventory and save the information to the clipboard.

Confirm Copy Items


Step 2

-Now use the Paste copied items

-I choose Original Location (you'll see why in a moment....)

Confirm that we want the cobble pasted at the original location.


Step 3

I link the items before moving them into place. You don’t have to do this - you can simply maneuver them using the EHT movement arrows.

To link items

-Use the Change these items drop down menu and choose Link Group

I find that the items are easier to move around when linked. As I use the Precision Editor in the base game housing menu, this method works well for me.

As always - you do what works best for you.


Step 4

-Using the EHT arrows, I move the newly pasted items slightly so they are easier to grab with the precision editor.

Congratulations! You are now an expert duplicator!


Missing Items?

What if you’re missing an item? EHT will tell you (repeatedly), and then paste the available items if you confirm the Partial Pasting (which sounds odd, no?)

Partial paste without the fern. Kind of ...sparse.
