Duplicating vector layers

You can duplicate individual vector layers or multiple vector layers. In doing so, the contents of the original layers and their associated settings are reproduced on new layers.

To duplicate vector layers:

  1. In the Project Tree, select the vector layer, or layers, you want to duplicate. Its panel is displayed below the splitter bar.
  2. On the panel, click the Duplicate button. The duplicate layers are created above their original layers in the vector-layer stack. Each duplicate layer is named for its original layer, along with the Copy suffix.
