What You'll Learn
- Click and paste spaces individually with the updated copy tool
- Create an array by typing the exact number of copies you need
- Lock the gap between copied objects so spacing stays consistent
- Use arrays for modular layouts like apartments, hotels, and parking bays

With the updated copy tool, you can now click and paste spaces one after the other and edit them independently. Another way to copy is to create an array. After copying an object, type in the number of copies you'd like to have. Hitting enter will create this array. At any time, you can customize the number of objects in the array and the distance between them. You also have the option to lock the gap between these objects. When you make changes, all the spaces will shift to accommodate the gap, which in this case is zero. This feature is particularly useful in modular layouts like apartments, hotels, or parking bays, where quick iteration and precise control are essential. It also proves handy in BIM mode, where you can use it to copy landscape elements and then create arrays that can be modified later.
