Is there any way to copy and paste shapes? Is the only option to copy/paste the points and recreate the fill?

Copy & paste the points would copy &paste the shape as well if any. But need to select all the points that hold the shape, if not only points are pasted.

Be aware that when you copy-paste a shape, if that shape is named the copy will get the same name. This can lead to confusion if you try to select shapes by name.

Also, the shape will be pasted right on top of the old shape, so you may not notice that there is a new shape pasted there until you move it.
