EDIT: wow... just found the very obvious move/copy menu item... solved!

    @klicks, be sure to understand the difference between Move/Copy, and Duplicate.  Move/Copy allows you to either pick up and re-locate a card, or to spawn linked-copies to other locations.  Change it one place, it changes all the linked copies.

     

    Duplicate will create a clone of the original card, but it is self-contained.  Good when you want to start with an existing card and save some time building from scratch, but then you plan to modify it to do something different.

    For anyone who is looking to duplicate a card, it's very counterintuitive. The Move/Copy functionality only moves the existing card from one page to the next. The Save As fuctionality actually duplicates and makes copy of the existing card.

    Right. As far as I can see, the functional differences between these two are not very well explained. I want to also add that when using the move/copy function, all cards are treated the same, so there isn't really an "original" card. If you delete one of these copies, they ALL get deleted.
