Description

This Filter copies a Data Container, Attribute Matrix, or Attribute Array. Attribute Matrix copies will be located in the same Data Container as the original, while Attribute Array copies will be located in the same Attribute Matrix as the original.

If a Data Container is copied, then the new Data Container will contain copies of the original Data Container's Geometry, Attribute Matrices, and Attribute Arrays. Similarly, if an Attribute Matrix is copied, then the new Attribute Matrix will contain copies of the the original Attribute Matrix's Attribute Arrays. Thus, the copy flows down the data structure hierarchy.
