Copied and placed underneath the original object (in this example the Free Text field is copied).
Click on the original object and drag it to the desired location in the Form Builder body/grid. For this example, the new Free Text Field is placed in the grid below the field as shown in the following figure.

Since the field already contained the extension “_1” when the field was copied, the system incremented the extension by “1” and it became “_2”. If the same field is copied multiple times, the copied Field Names will contain incremented extensions of _1, _2, etc. on the copied fields. This allows Form Designers to create fields quickly. However,
Remember after copying fields, Form Designers still need to remember to add new Field Names and Labels and then create the relationships between the Field Label and the Form Field.
