Yes, that's what I mean. And more also. For example, if select a button,
the default name is PushButton1. I might want to call it AButton1. I would
like it if I could set that as a default, and then the next button I select
would be called AButton2.

I don't remember where I saw this. I think it was Borland C++ Builder. What
they did was allow you to change the values in the property sheet, and
whatever values you set last became the default. I think there was a menu
option that would let you toggle whether previous values became defaults. I
like the idea of being able to right click a control in the toolbox to set
the default though. I think it would be less obtrusive for those that don't
want it, and for newbies who might get overwhelmed by too many options.

Since I now know that I can copy controls (I assume they keep the size I
set, and don't revert to the default size when pasted. The name reverting
to default I can live with), this is much less needed. I would rather have
you concentrate on more important things.

Group copy works for me. That would be just as good to me as multiple
selection of controls for copying.
