Copying Symbols

You can duplicate a symbol to create a new symbol with many of the same properties of an existing symbol. Customize the new symbol by modifying the reference point, zoom level, and outline.

To copy a symbol

  1. Open the symbol library containing the symbol to copy by doing one of the following:
    • Double-click the symbol library in the Site Explorer.
    • Click the symbol library’s tab if the symbol library is already open.
  2. Click the symbol in the symbol list area.
  3. Click Duplicate.

    A new symbol is created. A number is appended to the name to indicate that one or more copies of the symbol exist.

  4. Customize and rename the symbol as desired.
