Is is in any way possible to copy or clone an object in DAZ Studio? I can copy settings, but not objects.  Did I miss something? The manual gives no clue.

B. 

No, in the case of figures. It can be done with pwReplicate for props, but each item is a new prop (it isn't an instance linked to the original)

Thanks.
It is props I want to copy. Deep copy is fine.
'pwReplicate' sounds like something that can be used from scripts, not from the interface, right?
Would need to dive into scripting then, interesting, no doubt, but a step beyond what I had planned.

B.

No, pwReplicate is a plugin so it has an inbterface for direct interaction.

Probably a dumb newbie question:

Would it work to bring the prop into Bryce, replicate it, and then somehow bring everything back into D|S in one fell swoop?

There are no such things as dumb questions, only dumb answers, see mine! ^_^

D|S to Bryce, no probleme, Bryce to D|S=export as .obj, import into D|S as .obj and reworking all the surfaces. It is easier to use pwReplicate!

You're funny! :D

Thanks for the reply, and I hear ya. :D I'm always up for easier. ;-)

Actually, you could save a material preset when you loaded the single prop, then apply that to the grouped replicated OBJ version as long as your options were chosen to maintain material names.

Found it.
The name of the plugin as sold on DAZ is actually just 'Replicate', without the 'pw', and it sells there at $9.95; not what I had in mind either.
