of the specified source object and share one shape node. When Keep
last selected object is on, the new objects are instances
of the source object and share its shape node.
- Reference

Use this option only
if the source object is a reference. New objects will also be references. Otherwise,
use the Copy or Instance options
to replace objects with the referenced source object.
NoteIf you attempt to
replace two or more objects with a reference you will not be able
to Undo.
- Keep last selected object

The source object is
kept by default. Turn off Keep last selected object if
you want the source object to be automatically deleted.
