_copy - Usage thereof
Usage

Makes a direct copy of the elements or attributes pointed to by the source parameter, placing them at the destination pointer in creative mode. The source may be on the template or data tree. Meta-attributes are copied with their parent objects (though only __context and __max_dp appear explicitally). However unlike normal attributes, meta-attributes cannot be copied explicitly (by mentioning them in the source parameter). Additionally, when copying multiple normal attributes explicitly the attribute of the destination element will be set to the last source attribute.
