Drag a copy in InDesign

If you ever need another copy of an object inside InDesign, you could use the duplicate command, copy and paste or an even better method. When you have an object selected with your black arrow, hold down the Option key (ALT for PC) and you can click and drag a copy of your object. As an added bonus, if you double click while you see the double arrow on a placed graphic, you can edit the original graphic in its native program.
