Another mod question

[Pineapplerum]

Hi again,

Another question...I can get something in the perfect size and position but then I have to duplicate that same item and put it in or near the same spot. Is there a way of simplifying

the task of putting multi items in a certain place, even if they're not all the same object? So I don't have to keep trying to get the position exactly right. Let's say, books. If I got one in the right position to put on a shelf, it's on the right height, it's the right angle and everything. But then I want to put another book in the same shelf right next to it. Is there a duplicate last item I can hit so I can just shimmy the new book over a little and place it right next to the other book I just put in the shelf?

Also, is there a way to put a plant or something right next to it without having to refind the right positioning for it to go on the shelf?

Thanks again.

 

Also, can I click on something and have it automatically pop up so I don't have to look for it again in the objects window. If you've ever played the Sims, they call it the eyedropper tool. Does Tes Construction have anything like that?

Never mind, I found it. For anyone else who needs to know... http://cs.elderscrolls.com/constwiki/index.php/A_beginner%27s_guide%2C_lesson_1_-_The_Construction_Set_Primer#New_Object ...it explains the duplication process as follows:

 

 

4. Duplicating Objects in Place

The last technique is to use the CTRL + D function. This makes a duplicate of an object in exactly the same position. It’s brilliant for stacking and repeat tasking. Select one of the plates on the bar and then press CTRL + D. The object may change appearance. This is a side effect of the doubling. Now select and drag one of these plates across the bar, and you will see the new plate appear. It will maintain its z-axis position from the plate you duplicated. Position it so it does not collide with any other objects. We now have 4 plates on the bar. Practice if you like dropping other objects using the F key and the CTRL + D to duplicate them.
