PPT97: How the Duplicate Command Works (176457)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft PowerPoint 97 for Windows
This article was previously published under Q176457 SUMMARY
Microsoft PowerPoint for Windows 95 version 7.0 has a Duplicate Again command
on the Edit menu. This command appears after you click Duplicate on the Edit
menu and then return to the Edit menu to create another duplicate. For example,
if you duplicate an object and put it one inch down from the original and then
return to the Edit Menu, the Duplicate command change to the Duplicate Again
command. The Duplicate Again command repeats your last Duplicate command. Hence,
if you click Duplicate Again, another duplicate of the object will be placed one
inch down from the first duplicate.
In PowerPoint 97 for Windows, the Duplicate command does not change to
Duplicate Again. However, the Duplicate command still works in the same way.
In addition, the keyboard shortcut for this command is still CTRL+D.
The one situation in which the PowerPoint Duplicate command does not
stagger the new object with the same displacement at which the previous
object is staggered is if duplicating the object would place it off of the
slide. In this case the Duplicate command only staggers the object down and
to the right.
