How to duplicate the model?

Function overview

D5 Render provides multiple ways to duplicate the scene resources：

Function	Shortcut key *	Usage
Associative duplicate	Ctrl + D	After duplicating the model, the material of the same part is associated with each other. Adjust the material on one model, and the other model will follow the changes.
Independent duplicate	Alt + D	The duplicated models are independent of each other, and the materials are not associated. When adjusting the material, the models do not affect each other.
Drag associative duplicate	Shift + Drag the axis	Copy along an axis in a certain direction. After duplicating the model, the materials are associated with each other.

• Shortcut keys support custom modification

Operation

Associative duplicate

Use the shortcut key "Ctrl + D" to duplicate, and the materials are associated with each other by default. Arbitrarily adjust the material on one model, and the other model will follow the changes. Click the "Duplicate" function in the menu or the right sidebar.

Independent duplicate

Use the shortcut key "Alt + D" to duplicate the model to avoid material association.

Drag associative duplicate

Press the "Shift" first, and click the axis in any direction to duplicate the model along the specified direction.
