How to reuse / copy SVG graphics items - revised

bclay

sorry about the repost - last post included an error

I think I have it right now. At least it does what I want. This is what I ended up with. Maybe it will help someone else. There is more to do to make it fully functional but I can close this out unless you see any problems that might come back to haunt me. It would be great if there was a way to send images so you could see what it looks like ---

Thanks again
Bruce
