# Direction Copy

- Object
- Shift

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

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

### Name

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

### Number

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

### Layer

After identifying the direction or list of directions to copy, GAMGI expects users to identify a layer to where the directions 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 directions, the copies can also be created at the layer of each original direction, by setting Layer to Local.
