Hi Everyone,
I use to work for a medical journal & duplicating objects is the most used function for me. I switched to notebook from a desktop & one thing is bugging me that I cant duplicate object like I used to do on my desktop using a [+] key on my numpad. It might be working with function keys or maybe something else, I almost tried everything I possibly could. Any suggestions as using ctrl+D won't place the duplicate object on the same place. If some knows anything about it please share
regards,
Laiq Atiq
Try the attached DupInPlace macro I wrote when I got a "travelling" laptop that does NOT have any NumPad keys at all. I assigned the shortcut + to it. (Shift and the += key just as if you were typing a plus sign).
Here's the macro written out in case you want to see it in writing:
-------------------------------
Sub DupInPlace()
Dim OrigSelection As ShapeRange
Set OrigSelection = ActiveSelectionRange
Dim dup1 As ShapeRange
Set dup1 = OrigSelection.Duplicate
End Sub

I've downloaded your attached Macro & pasted to my installation directory but it didnt worked, may be am doing something wrong. It will work for Corel X3 & X6 Both right? as I tried to add it in X3.
