Ok ctbram I will give that a shot. Thanks GecT for your help. As I use Surveying software most of the time I thought duplicating would also automatically duplicte the mesh properties. I am new to this type of CAD so I get a bit confused with the property styles, though it is similar. Will keep you posted

Thanks again

GetC I applied a shader to the lot of them. It appears the duplication didnt bring across the mesh/render properties for some reason. Thanks guys!!
