Operation Manual

Duplication
Duplication makes copies of an object while applying a set of changes such as color or rotation to
the duplicates that are created.
1) Click on an object or group of objects and go to Edit > Duplicate on the main menu bar or
use the keyboard shortcut Shift+F3 to open the Duplicate dialog (Figure 194).
2) Select the required options chosen from the options available. For example, when the
options in the dialog are applied to a rectangle, they produce the result shown in Figure
195.
