Chapter VI: ADVANCED EDITING

Making Copies

icon


Once you have created a collection of objects, it may be desirable to have other identical copies. To make a copy, use the Duplicate command of the Edit menu. Then click and hold the button down while moving the outline of the duplicated objects. Release the button to place them in the selected location.

The Duplicate command forces newly created nodes and arcs to have unique names. This means that if any nodes or arcs are named (using the Get Info command of the Info menu) then duplicated, the new ones will have different names (specifically, the old names with numbers appended).
