You can Shift ⇧-drag to copy an object you have permission to copy. This isn't obviously stated in the build tools but is a popular way to copy objects. Here's a simple example:

  1. Right-click the ground and choose Create on the pie menu.
  2. Click the ground again to rez a generic cube.
  3. Right-click the cube and choose Edit. The positioning arrows appear.
  4. Hold down Shift ⇧, left-click one of the arrow heads, and drag the prim. A copy is left behind at the original location.
