Duplicate an element

[Jan Thomä]

Hi,

i am trying to find an option to duplicate an existing element. I want to make a copy of the element, not create any reference or instance. The need for this often arises when doing activity diagrams where I have a lot of elements already laid out and resized and just want to make a copy of an activity and change it's text. I know there is the "repeat last element" option (Shift+F3) but this simply inserts a new blank element and I have to redo all the layout and formatting again. Any insights?

Best regards,
Jan
