A linked model can be copied any number of times in a host project.
For example, a housing development may have multiple designs that repeat many times throughout the site.
For each copy of a linked model that you place in a project, a unique name is automatically generated. This name helps to identify elements from linked models in a schedule. You can modify the name for a linked model instance through its properties.
You can copy linked models using the standard copy and paste procedures (see Copying Elements) or you can drag a linked model from the Project Browser into a project view.
