For reproducing objects on the page.
Note: VTS also allows you to use keyboard shortcuts to select, copy, and paste multiple objects, as described in Working with Objects.
The Copy Tool enables you to perform rapid application development in applications where multiple pages have similar layouts, as you can copy objects on one page, paste them to a new page, and then reassign the tags associated with any tag drawing methods.
You can use the Copy Tool to reproduce one or more selected objects as many times as you require. Simply select the object(s) you wish to copy using the Pick Graphics tool or keyboard shorts, and then click the Copy Tool button. A preview of the objects you have copied will be attached to your mouse pointer. Position the preview objects on the application page and click to drop a copy. You can continue to position the mouse pointer and click to make as many copies of the selected object(s) as you wish. When you have finished, right click to drop the last copy and deactivate the Copy Tool.
