Creating several custom commands

[modulor]

This seems silly..How do I create several custom commands in one session of CUI?
Every time I edit a custom command in the CUI properties pane, the edit seems to apply itself to several other commands. For example, I may think that I have created 10 new unique macros..but surprise! They all do the same thing!
I hope this makes sense.

Is there proper sequence to follow?

I think it has something to do with the Element ID, they are all the same.

Think of commands as XRefs. You have one definition (the command) that can be used in multiple instances (the CUI node elements). Yes, this behavior is tied to the element ID. If you want to duplicate a command and tweak the copy a bit for another use, right-click on the original command and select the Duplicate item. Add the duplicated command to the new element rather than attempting to "reuse" the original command.

I don't get it. It seems that "duplicating" the original command has been my problem all along, as it also duplicates the Element ID. The only way I have been able to create new commands is to create them from scratch each time.

Please see my screenshot. The "Duplicate" item in the context menu copies the original command and changes the ElementID.
