Power-duplicating

Power-duplicating is the process of repeating a transformation (move, scale, skew, reflect, rotate)
on successive duplicates of the object. You can use power-duplication with more than one
transformation. For example, you can move, scale, and skew a duplicate, and those
transformations will be applied to successive duplicates.
Moving (left); moving and scaling (center); and moving, scaling, and rotating
Note: You cannot combine scaling and skewing during power-duplication.

To power-duplicate a selected object:

Select Edit > Duplicate.

Undoing actions

Using the Edit > Undo and Redo commands, you can undo or redo up to 100 actions, depending
on the memory available to your system. You can undo an action after you've saved a file, but not
after you've closed and reopened it.
You can also undo any number of actions by reverting to the last saved version of the file.
To undo or redo an action, do one of the following:
Select Edit > Undo [action name] to undo an action. If the Undo command is dimmed, you
cannot undo the action.
Select Edit > Redo [action name] to redo the action.
