Duplicate in Figma (Linux)

Press Ctrl + D to make a copy of the selected layers.

What it does

Duplicate makes a copy of the selection in the same parent. After you move the copy, a second press repeats the step: the next copy lands at the same distance and in the same direction. This builds a row of cards or a list of items with even gaps, without measuring. The copies are independent layers, unless what you duplicated was an instance of a component.
