Now select that sub-sheet symbol by left-clicking/holding and drawing
a rectangle around it. Right-click and choose “duplicate block.” Now
you have a new instance of that same sub-sheet.
As a user, I would not expect "Duplicate" to mean "Create a shallow
copy." I would expect the duplicated block to be completely independent
of the original block. If that is actually the behavior (a shallow
copy, i.e. a new reference to the same block), "Duplicate" is a
misleading term.
How, then, would I take a sub-sheet and create a deep copy, in the case
that my intent was to modify the copy in some way without affecting the
original?
Thanks for engaging on my rabbit-trail!
