↳ Former wiki "//paste" page

Command Parameter Description
//copy [-e]
[-m]
Copy the selected region blocks to an imaginary clipboard. It also stores the player's position where it is copied.
//cut [-e]
[-m]
Clear the region blocks and put it in an imaginary clipboard. It also stores the player's position where it is cut.
//paste [-s]
[-a]
[-o]
Pastes the region from clipboard based from the player's position where it is cut or copied last time.
"//cut" is like "//copy" but also 'deletes' the region in the process.
The clipboard can also be saved as a schematic file.
Parameters Description
[-e] also cut/copy entities such as paintings, armor_stands, mobs, etc.
[-m] sets a mask ID so only those masked blocks will be pasted.

ex: "//copy -m 2,7" will only copy grass_blocks and bedrocks and skip copying other blocks.
[-s] conveniently selects the region where it was pasted relatively.
[-a] skips pasting air_blocks to avoid 'unwanted deletion' to nearby objects.
[-o] re-paste where it was previously copied/cut.

ex: If the clipboard is still there, "//paste -o" will restore back the objects in the copied region directly.
