PPT98: How the Duplicate Command Works (188370)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft PowerPoint 98 Macintosh Edition
This article was previously published under Q188370 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 place it one inch down from the original and then
return to the Edit Menu, the Duplicate command changes 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 98 Macintosh Edition, the Duplicate command does not change
to Duplicate Again. However, the Duplicate command still works in the same way,
and the keyboard shortcut for this command is Command+D.
The one situation in which the 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.
