In addition to the standard copy and paste procedure for creating a copy of an object (or a selection of objects), Creator provides a Paste Multiple Times feature to allow multiple copies to be created at once.
Click on the object (or objects) to select them. A bounding box will surround each object.
Cut or copy the selection, using the Edit menu or keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+X to cut, Ctrl+C to copy).
Select Paste Multiple Times from the Edit menu. Alternatively, you can press Ctrl+M.
The Paste Multiple Times dialog will appear allowing you to set the number of copies to be produced. There are several options to set:
Number of Times – This is the number of duplicates to be produced.
Paste Offset – These values determine the horizontal and vertical offset of the duplicates from the original location and each other. The initial values for these match your current Paste Offset setting as set in the Options.
Click OK to complete the operation
