Hi Psygorn,

Hmmm, well looking more closely at your example it looks like only 2 of the points out of the ones you selected are copied:




Then there are 4 completely new points inserted that do not correspond to any previous point, so those are not really "copies":




I'm sorry but it would be pretty strange to have a dedicated keyboard shortcut that would copy only some of the current selected points, not all of them, and then additionally insert new points that work just for this one very specific case of making a pill shape.

In the future I do want to add some symmetry editing tools, maybe those would help with this particular case as well.
