Form Object Copy Features Return to Tips N Tricks Archive Index
Another time saving option has been added for specifying a fixed distance between form elements when copying. There are two new icons and numerical entry boxes in the Select/Edit toolbox for setting the horizontal and vertical displacement of copied objects.

Horizontal


Vertical

To copy an object(s)

  1. Select the Edit Tool.
  2. Select an object or group of objects in your work area.
  3. Click on the Copy Object icon.
  4. Enter the number of copies.
  5. Specify the Horizontal and/or Vertical distance for each copy. You must also turn on the Horizontal and/or Vertical Distance icons located next to the Distance entry box.
  6. Position the cursor on the object that you need to copy and left click.

The selected object/objects will be copied by the number that you entered in step 3 and by the distance that you specified in step 4. If you already have your object selected after you specify number of copies, when you left click on the Copy Object Icon your object(s) will automatically be copied.
