    Default Copy a Drawing Sheet within the Same Inventor Drawing File

    Summary: The ability to duplicate a drawing sheet within the same Inventor drawing file.

    Description: Inventor has no direct way to duplicate a drawing sheet in the same IDW or DWG file. To duplicate a sheet you need to use another IDW file for temporary storage. The other IDW has to be either be a copy of the original IDW,or an empty IDW. Then you have to copy and paste the sheet you want to duplicate between these IDW's. This is utter nonsense, and wastes a fair amount of time, and creates excess files that you need to keep track of and delete. The ability to copy a sheet within the same drawing needs to be a top priority, and I hope everyone who reads this wish votes for it. Thank you.

Every user must be told, discover on there on, or researched this "trick" or " tip", since the software has no direct way to copy a sheet. This is utter nonsense, wastes a fair amount of time, and creates excess files that you need to manage. A user should be able to RMB on the sheet, select copy, then RMB and select paste, and be done with it.
