Repeat and duplicate structure members

Duplicate structure members or repeat them with grid and circular arrays.

Use member actions in the Structure editor to duplicate parts or repeat them in a grid or circle. These are member edits within the open structure. Select the intended source members first, check the tool’s available controls, and inspect the resulting spacing before continuing.

Select the source members

Open a supported structure and select the members to repeat. The Inspector identifies the selection and shows member actions. Clear the selection to return to the object summary and insertion library.

Duplicate a selection

Choose Duplicate or press Ctrl+D. The new members belong to the same open structure. Use Move to position them, or use the shared Copy workflow when you need a base point and a measured offset.

Create a grid

Choose Grid array… in member actions. Set the offered repetition and spacing controls, check the preview, and confirm the operation. The resulting members can be selected and edited within the structure.

Create a circular repetition

Choose Circular array… for a repeated arrangement around a center. Set the offered center, count and angle controls, inspect the preview, then confirm. Use the Inspector to adjust the selected members afterwards.

Understand an unavailable path array

The along-a-path array is disabled for structure members because that operation would create loose objects outside the structure. Use a grid, circular array or measured Copy instead. The disabled tile explains this limitation.

Undo or finish

Array and duplicate operations use drawing history. Undo removes the recorded operation; Redo reapplies it. Done leaves while keeping the changes. Cancel attempts to undo available session edits back to the point where the Structure editor opened.
