Duplicating (or Cloning) an Object
The Clone operation creates a duplicate object exactly,
including any changes you have made such as sizing or
renaming. Cloning is a shortcut for cutting and pasting.
1 Open the object menu and select Clone. An outline of the
duplicated object appears.
2 Move the outline to the desired location, and click to
place the object. The cloned object appears, while the
original object remains. In
Figure 10, the Function
Generator has already been cloned once, and the object
menu has the command selected to clone it again.
Figure 10 Cloning an Object
NOTE
“Object Location Information, located on the status bar (at the bottom of
the VEE window) gives the X and Y position (in pixels) of the upper-left
corner of the outline relative to the upper-left corner of the workspace. To
view an object’s exact location, left click on an object to select it and hold
the left mouse button down. The location is displayed in the status bar.
Use this information when you need to place an object in an exact
position.
