Although CAD may be used directly to copy a road design element, information on its grouping with other elements is not recorded in this operation. This command should therefore be used to copy grouped elements.
One simply has to select an element and select a position for the copy with the mouse. Should the element be grouped, the program asks if the copy is Total or Partial.
The former option copies all the elements, while the second only permits a section to be copied by selecting its initial and final points. Two lines are drawn to clearly indicate the initial and final points chosen. This latter option allows modifications to be made to the section copied and then to incorporate the changes in the original group using the Replace Alignment command.
