you could just duplicate the part you need and put the duped objectgroup back into hirarchy. MMB drag and drop it to the place inside the original hirarchy where you need it to be.


everything starts and ends in the right place at the right time.

when I´m duplicating a orthoCam it doesn´t shift, but if I had that prob I´d uncheck orthographic, duplicate it and check orthographic again.
