Duplicate
RAM-permitting, this function enables you to create as many duplicates of the selected objects as
you wish. The function also lets you move, scale and rotate the duplicates and arrange them along
a spline.
Copies denes the number of duplicates that will be created. The duplicated objects will be placed
inside a Null object named ‘*_copies’, where ‘*’ represents the name of the object that is being
duplicated. If Generate Instances is enabled, CINEMA 4D will create the copies as Instance objects
instead of as real copies.
The Duplicate function otherwise works in exactly the same way as the Arrange function. For details
on the remaining parameters, Look up ‘Arrange tool’ in the index.
