Abstract

The term constructive editing is used to describe those commands which either replicate existing entities or alter their characteristics. This chapter begins with some of the commands that alter the objects and then considers some of the ways to duplicate them. This will help to accelerate the repetitive type of work needed to complete the Eiffel tower (Figure 5.1) that was started in Chapter 3.
