12) Cut, copy, paste and duplicate

Cut, copy, paste and duplicate

Command	Keyboard shortcuts	Action
Copying	Ctrl+C	A copy of the selected object/s is placed in the program’s clipboard
Cutting	Ctrl+X	Cutting performs the same action as copying, but the object is then deleted
Pasting	Ctrl+V	The content of the clipboard is pasted back into the document (but the same object can be pasted several times). Places the document where the mouse cursor hovers.
Paste in place	CTRL+Alt+V	Places the object exactly where it was copied from. A handy tool if you want to move an object from one layer to another without changing its position.
Duplicate	Ctrl+D	Creates a copy of the selected object and places it in the same position on the canvas. It is same as copy and paste, however the action is not remembered in the clipboard.
Stamping	Space	While an object is being dragged for transforming (move, rotate, scale, skew), pressing ‘Space’ will leave a trail of its copies.

Note:

Different softwares have different shortcuts for commands like “Paste in Place, Duplicate and Stamping”. But commands like ”Cut, Copy and Paste” are universal and follow same shortcuts everywhere.
