You need to make sure you select the same type of library corresponding to your card type (sketch, measurement, or materials)

 


Step 4: Select your Measurement cards from any techpack and simply drag and drop them into your new library.  A window called column mapping should pop out. 

Column mapping helps in manually choosing the relevant data columns associated with the cards when moving them between libraries and destination and keep your techpack data organized. You can learn all about it here.
