Copy, Paste, Flip and Move the Button Line

To create the right button outline we are simply going to use a copy of the one we've just created and apply some tranformations to it.

1. Choose the Pointer tool.
   
   And make sure the Button Line is selected.
   
2. Choose Edit > Copy then Edit > Paste.
   This will create a copy of the Button Line. We could have chosen Edit > Duplicate but often this moves the duplicate and we want it to be in the same place as the original.
   
3. With the copy of the Button Line still selected, choose Modify > Transform > Flip Horizontally.
   
   You should now have two copies of the Button Line.
   
4. Shift-click the right arrow key to move the copy of the Button Line into position next to the right grip.
   Remember when you get close to the grip you can use the arrow keys by themselves to move the object 1 pixel at a time.
   
   
5. Rename the Button Lines:
   R Button Line and
   L Button Line
