Copy - Single

Create one copy of selected entities (including faces, curves, objects or NC toolpaths). There are several options for setting the location or direction of the copy.

Select entities that you want to copy. All types of entities can be selected (curves, faces, open / closed objects, sketches). The cursor will tell you what you are selecting, and you can use the Selection Filter to enable you to select the entities you want. Press exit when all entities are selected.

If you select a face and use Include entire feature, all faces belonging to the same feature (created by the same function) will be automatically selected. Toggle Include entire feature to Only picked faces if you want to select individual faces. This field will not appear if you select objects, curves, sketches, or faces of different features.

Select the type of copy. The Merge On field means that all copied items will be part of the same object as the original. Toggle to Merge Off if you want each copied item to be an individual object.

When you are finished, press OK
