Duplicate Arrays? [SOLVED]

Hey,

I'm just starting to explore qCAD to see if it is capable of doing what I need it to.

Is there a function for duplicating an array of blocks? e.g. for making teeth for cogs and such? I can't find any mention of that functionality in the manual, but it seems like a fairly basic function that every other CAD software I've used seems to have - and it's a bit odd to have missed it out.

If not, is there a script that will do this? It seems like a pretty common task. Unless you are into manually creating 100 or so teeth for a gearbox. Or drawing every stair into a staircase.

Cheers,

Ah, found it. It's called "Move/Copy" ... which I suppose isn't that misleading.
