group copy

Allows you to copy an existing group to a new group.
All objects that are referenced by the first group will be referenced by the new group.
When objects in a group are copied, they are copied in the same manner as other copy operations in Adams View. That is, a replica of the original objects are created, reference markers for the new object are created as needed and a new name is automatically generated.

Format:

 
group copy
group_name =
existing group
new_group_name =
new name for group

Example:

 
group copy &
group_name =
my_part_group &
new_group_name =
my_part_copy

Extended Definition:

1. You may identify a group by typing its name.
If a group is available by default, you may identify it by entering only its name. If it is not, you must enter its full name. If you type a "?", Adams View will list the group available by default.
You must separate multiple group names by commas.
