  • I have just opened Debrief and loaded the sample rep file BULK_BLUE_TRACKS
  • In outline box I have selected the drop down menu and selected 'Create New Layer'.
  • I named the layer 'Layer made in Outline'
  • I selected the track 'T23_A' and cut it
  • Then pasted into the layer
  • I have saved the file as 'layer loss test.dpf'
  • Following this I have the error: 'Exception Caught: Debrief Exporter not found for
  • The layer is now empty of any data.

The issue here was that Debrief allowed a heavyweight track to be pasted into a Layer. Then , it wasn't able to save that track (since a layer doesn't know how to store a heavyweight track - only lightweight ones).

So, I directed the user to convert the track to a light-weight layer, a step that includes moving it into a layer.

We should not allow a heavyweight track to be pasted into the Outline View.

In Slack @ayeshare and I just established that we may have some more PasteItem tests, to correctly handle some dynamic shape combinations.
