Copy Elements

Elements can be copied.

To copy an element, right-click on the element and select the Copy option from the menu. Select the element in the hierarchy beneath which the element is to be placed, right-click, and select the Paste option from the menu. The element is then copied to the selected location.

The name of a duplicate is the name of the original element prefixed with "Copy-of-". If subsequent duplicates are made of the original element then each duplicated element is prefixed with "Copy-([…])-of-[Element Name]", where […] is an incremental count of the number of duplicates for that element.

To rename an element, refer to Rename Elements.

Note:
When moving or copying the selected location must be valid for the element type in the hierarchy. For example, a diagram element can be placed beneath a group element, but not the other way round.
