+    <p>
+	  The Duplicate and Drop Shape function enables comfortable drawing when it
+	  is needed to use the same shape repeatedly.<br/>
+	  In this case you don't have to drag and drop the necessary shape from
+	  menu again, just apply the following steps:
+	  <ol>
+	    <li>Select one shape lying on actual page in Visio. Otherwise the last dropped shape is usually selected.</li>
+		<li>Move the cursor exactly into the position, where you wish to drop the shape.</li>
+		<li>Invoke <i>Duplicate and Drop</i> function by <code>Ctrl+Alt+X</code> keyboard shortcut.</li>
+	  </ol>
+	  This feature is a bit similar to <code>copy and paste</code> function supported by Visio, but there are some important differences:
+	  <ul>
+	    <li>In contrast with <code>copy/paste</code>, shape is dropped <b>exactly</b> into position of your cursor.</li>
+		<li>Every shape dropped by <code>Ctrl+Alt+X</code> shortcut
+		has the same properties as it were dragged and dropped from menu (in contrast to <code>copy/paste</code>, where you get shape with copied properties of the selected one). You inform SCStudio about the type of requested shape by selecting the one on the page, not in menu. From that reason you can select only one shape on the page before using this function.</li>
