# Cluster Copy

- Object
- Shift

Indicate here the number of cluster copies to create and its destination.

Gamgi expects users to identify first the cluster or list of clusters to copy. When the Cluster entry is active and empty, clicking the mouse over an cluster, on the current layer (local selection), its identification is transported to the Cluster entry. Pressing the List button, the current list of clusters is selected instead.

### Name

This is the name given to the new cluster copies. The default is to copy the name of each original cluster.

### Number

This is the requested number of copies, a positive integer. The default is 1.

### Layer

After identifying the cluster or list of clusters to copy, GAMGI expects users to identify a layer to where the clusters should be copied. Pressing the mouse over the graphic area in any window (global selection), creates a menu with all the layers in that window, which can then be selected. The current layer is initially proposed in the Layer entry.

When copying a list of clusters, the copies can also be created at the layer of each original cluster, by setting Layer to Local.
