How to Duplicate furniture?

[jadube]

After adding an object to a room (by dragging from the furniture list) I modified the size and color of the object. I would now like several copies of the object. Copy and Paste did not work. How can I duplicate an object?

Also - could I add this customized object to the list of furniture as a new object?

thanks

Copy / Paste didn't work probably because Furniture list or the plan didn't have the focus (meaning a blue rectangle around them, read http://www.sweethome3d.eu/userGuide.html#userInterface ).
You may also duplicate selected objects with a drag-and-drop while keeping the Ctrl key pressed (or Alt key under Mac OS X)
