Duplicate layer ?

Hi everybody!


just a simple question :


is it possible to duplicate layer?

EX : i've got a layer named A, i would like to duplicate the layer A and create layer A copy with the same objets ant cotations.

I don't want to select all the objets, copy them to the archicad layer, create another layer and then move all the objets to the new layer, it doesn't work with cotations.

....I would find the way to click and choose "duplicate layer" like photoshop or autocad.

This is would be a very useful tool. Sometimes you need to have different options for the exterior, same material but different finishings. So a good option is duplicate the layer, change the name a after that change the finishing of the material.

This can be done with GOs so no need to spend the extra time duplicating layers.
