zcopy question

hello

is there a way to copy an object to two or more layers at once?

i use a zcopy command to copy an object to a different layer.

but i would like to find out if i can do it not to a single layer but to multiple layers at once.

    If you invoke Shape Edit Mode, hover over the shape you want to copy and right click - Copy to Layers... you can choose the layer(s) you want to copy to and they are copied.
