Applying new animation to multiple processors in a model

Hello,

I have a model with many processors (with custom graphics). I created a custom library for these objects, and it has worked well.

Now i want to add an animation to these processors. I dont want to go and replace each processor, its connections etc with a new custom object (which has the animation). Is it possible to somehow 'paste' that animation on to existing objects?

Regards

BK

This script should copy to the selected objects (from Processor1 in this example):

Object origin=Model.find("Processor1");
Object target;
treenode newvisuals= color(origin).up;
Array selobjects=Table.query("SELECT ARRAY_AGG(Object) FROM Objects() WHERE switch_selected(Object,-1)")[1][1];
while (selobjects.length){
    target=selobjects.pop();
    createcopy(newvisuals,color(target).up,1,0,0,1);
    rebindobjectattributes(target);
}

Will this script copy surrogates also?
