>> copy/paste (clone) an existing drawing that has been placed and setup in a layout to another new layout?
By eyedroping properties of a layout drawing and syringing them onto a new drawing layout it only transfers some of the characteristics of the first layout. Is there is a way to transfer all of the properties?

Jeff:
In the Navigator, set to Layout Book, select the drawing you want to copy, hold down the option key and drag the drawing (it will have a plus sign next to it) to the new layout. This will create a copy of the drawing, in the same location, on the new layout.

David, yes, that's exactly how to place a drawing into a layout >>
I want to place a given drawing, a second time, into a new layout with exactly the same properties and characteristics as a previously created layout, i.e. to CLONE a previously created layout.
So far, I don't think that is possible.

Same procedure as David's but grab the layout instead of the drawing, that will clone the layout.
