Yes, that sort of does the same thing, except pasting might not work to replicate the exact time depending on the granularity set for the calendar. E.g. if the interval is set to half hourly, I can't clone an event that starts at, say, 10.15 am. My idea was to have the event details dialog pop up on chosing 'clone' with the details already set from the mother event and then just change the date. However, as very similar functionality is already there, you probably shouldn't bother with it. Thanks for your reply!
