Overview

You can make copies of all Universal Controller records, including triggers, using the standard method for Copying a Record: selecting Insert on the Action menu.

However, this method does not make copies of any records that are associated with the copies record. For triggers, Insert does not make copies of any Variables that are associated with the trigger.

The Copy Trigger option allows you to make a complete copy of a trigger, including all of its Variables.
