Copying Assemblies
Use the Copy Component tool to create a copy of a source assembly or its
components.
You can either create a new assembly file and open it in a new window, or
add copied components to an existing assembly file. Each copied component
creates a new file. You can reuse components instead of copying them.
The resulting copied components are not associative, and are not updated if
the original components are modified.
