The easiest way I know of to do this is to use the Catalog Managed
product search screens. On the search results page near the bottom
there is a set of forms you can use to do things to do the search
results, including adding and removing features and categories (which
should address the things Schubi mentioned).

The last time I looked, there was nothing that allowed you to move
products from catalog to catalog in bulk. It shouldn't be too
difficult to write a service to do that since catalogs & categories
exist independently of products (and product features such as
product pricing & description.) You could then set the new service
up to recur every day, at a time convenient to you.
Or, you could just switch the catalog that is viewable on the
website. You will need to do that manually using the Catalog Manager.
Maybe someone else on the list knows a better way.

I will have only one catalog and update the changes only once a
day... so
that i can put all new products prices and so on over the day in
the non
visible catalog. Is there any function in ofbiz to do this?

Your motivation for wanting to do this may have some bearing on
the answer to these questions. For example, do you simply want to
put all your new products on the website at one time (say 12
midnight?). Or do you have multiple suppliers/vendors and want
each to have a separate catalog? At some point, you want to merge
all the catalogs and all the products?
What properties would you like to inherit from the category? [Most
of the properties that I normally think of in connection with the
category are really product properties.]
