Description This command is used to copy one or more selected objects and then paste multiple instances of the selection wherever required in the current document.
Use First, ensure that the objects that you want to include in the copy are selected in the main design window.
After launching the command, the cursor will change to a crosshair. If the Clipboard Reference option is enabled in the Graphical Editing tab of the Preferences dialog, you will be prompted to select a reference point. This is the point by which the selection will be pasted.
Simply move the cursor to the required position near to the selection and click or press ENTER. A copy of the selection will appear floating on the cursor.
Move the cursor to the desired location in the workspace and click or press ENTER to place the copy. Another copy of the selection will appear floating on the cursor ready for placement.
Continue placing further instances of the copied selection (rather like using a rubber stamp) or right-click or press ESC to exit.
Notes If the Clipboard Reference option is disabled, then the current cursor position is used as the reference point. In this case, it is advisable to use the shortcut to launch the command.
This command is used to copy and paste objects. As such, you cannot use the command for child of group objects.
