Copy selected allows you to duplicate selected prims and align them adjacent to each other. For example, if you're copying sections of a wall and Shift ⇧-dragging to copy is proving tricky to fine-tune, you may want to take advantage of this.

To understand how this works, let's use 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. From the build tools, select Create' (also found in Tools > Select Tool > Create).
4. Check Keep Selected so we can do the following steps repeatedly.
5. Click the Copy selected checkbox. For now, check Center and uncheck Rotate.
6. Now, click on the faces of the cube. Each time you do so, the cube is duplicated, aligned edge-to-edge with a previous cube.

Since this build tool relies on Second Life's 3D space, watch this video to understand more. Note that it dates from an older version of Second Life where it was "Copy Selection" instead of "Copy selected", but the tool works the same:
