# Duplicate

Adding more of the same objects is a fast way to add more content to your scenes.

### Duplicate and place

When you have one or more objects selected, click Ctrl+D or Cmd+D (⌘+D). You should now see a yellow sphere which indicates where your duplicate objects will be placed. Click with your left mouse button to place the duplicate objects. The selected objects relative location to each other will remain.

### Duplicate during transform

When you have one or more objects selected and you have a transform tool active such as Move, Rotate or Scale, click Ctrl+D or Cmd+D (⌘+D) to directly duplicate the objects in place. Your transform will not transfer over to the new, duplicated objects so that you can instead transform them. This can be convenient when you want to quickly duplicate and move or rotate objects.
