When setting up a new housing development or street with new streetlighting or sign assets I clone a nearby asset, alter all the attributes to align with the lighting design drawing asset specifications for the new development / street, remove any specific attributes that were specific to the parent such as network, asset number etc and then clone that asset multiple times to populate the new development. Once all the assets are plotted in the correct locations I add in the asset numbering and assign a network. It would be very helpful (and save allot of time) to be able to select the asset I wanted to clone, make the necessary changes as above and then enter the number of new assets I wanted to create (e.g. 30 new assets) and then have the system create the specified number of new assets. Each clone could then simply be moved into the correct location, have an asset number added and a Network assigned. Having this function added would save having to manually clone the same item multiple times. This also ensures consistency of new asset specifications.
