# Copy / Duplicate Layers

 * Hi! This plugin is great, it works fine so far but some things are not very user
   friendly. For example, is it possible to duplicate a layer? Or to copy a layer
   and paste it on another page without losing the settings? If yes, I didn’t find
   how to do it.
 * I’m new with this plugin but I really enjoy being creative with it so I hope 
   it will get better and better!

 * Hi there, [@alkorr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alkorr/)! Thanks for 
   your question. We’re glad you are enjoying it so far! You can use short keys 
   to copy a layer or element and paste it. [Here](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VNv8O5SnlqZfgYXo5ua2mCc-MWTN9ow6OtYWxml5Ka0/edit#gid=0)
   is a list of short keys for your reference. Hope this helps.

 * Hi Luckyna San, thanks for your reply! I already use shortcuts (Ctrl C / Ctrl
   V, etc…) and it works fine. Unfortunately, when I copy the text from a layer 
   and paste it on another page, the text is not formatted anymore (not the same
   font, not bold, etc…).
 * It would be great if it could work, it would make it easier to create pages and
   not lose a lot of time formatting the text again each time I copy/paste it <:)

 * [@alkorr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alkorr/) To confirm, are you experiencing
   these issues with version 1.4.0 of the plugin? While I cannot reproduce your 
   issue at the moment, it would be helpful to gather a few more details from you.
 * – What browser and operating system are you using?
 * – Could you perhaps share a video or screenshot of what you are experiencing?
   You can use services like [Jumpshare](https://jumpshare.com/) or [Recordit](https://recordit.co/)
   to capture this.
