Additional Options for Adding Plates
To speed up the process of adding Plate Locations, MRS contains a few extra operations which you may find useful:

Duplicate Plates
The 'Duplicate Plates' option  will add a duplicate for each of the currently selected rows, each of which can then be edited accordingly.
These new, duplicated rows will have '(copy)' appended to their names in order to differentiate them.
Note: This option can also be invoked by the shortcut Ctrl+D




Duplicate and Replace Plates

The 'Duplicate and Replace Plates' option can be used to duplicate and replace part of the Plate Location name that all the selected plates have in common.
For example, if you have a cabinet and have added all of the 'Left-Hand Side' plates - which you are identifying with adding '(LHS)' to the plate name, and now you want to add plates with the exact same settings for the Right-Hand Side.
You can select your Left-Hand Side Plates:

Click the 'Duplicate and Replace Plates' Option, and choose to replace '(LHS)' with '(RHS)':

Which will then create the plates with exactly the same settings, but with 'RHS' names:
