Hi,

if you would like to transfer and copy a mesh from one surface or component to another, please use these functions (described in the pulldown menu):

Mesh - Translate - Elements - if you would like to translate the mesh along an axis

Mesh - Rotate - Elements - if you would like to rotate the mesh at an axis

Mesh - Project - Elements - If you would like to adapt the mesh to a new plane

Morphing - Map to Geometry - if the mesh should adapt to a new (e.g. curved instead of planar) shape

 

To create a copy, make sure that you select the 'Elems - DUPLICATE' option in the yellow entity selector. For this you first need to select the original elements and then hit the yellow selector and select 'duplicate' to create a copy that will then be translated, morphed etc.
