Map sharing between my games

I created a very detailed map for a roll20 game, using the tools in roll20, and adding objects and notes in the map and GM layers. How do I transfer all of that to a new game? (I am the GM in both games). I tried Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C and then Ctrl-V but nothing happens in the new game, so I'm thinking maybe that method only works for game maps that were files that were imported into the game? Any help or guidance appreciated!

Hi Pathfinder! The ability to move whole pages (and characters, and handouts, etc.) freely between games is a Pro perk, using a tool called the Transmogrifier. Also note that the Transmogrifier only switches between games in which you are the creator, not just a promoted GM (I don't know if this latter is the case, just trying to be thorough.).

Not ideal, but you could take screenshots, crop/stitch the images together with an image editor, and then upload it to your art library for use in other games.
This doesn't solve everything by any stretch of the imagination, but I inadvertently deleted a map from one of my games.  I'm not PRO so the workaround was to create a character with a suitable name (from a fresh instance of the game in this example, but you can see how this would work) and select the map as the default token for that character. Export to character vault, import to new game, drag and drop to map layer, expand to desired size.  May not be ideal for you in this scenario, but hey ho, no harm done eh?

Simon, that's a clever approach.
Ahh, thank you all. Those are some good ideas to try!
