title: Point.copy()
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
A point's `copy()` method returns a new point with the same coordinates as the original point.
|
|
This method does _not_ copy any attributes the original point may have.
|
|
|
|
## Point.copy() signature
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
Point point.copy()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
<Note>
|
|
|
|
###### Copy vs clone
|
|
|
|
this `Point.copy()` method will only copy the point's coordinates.
|
|
To also copy the attributes, use [`Point.clone()`](reference/api/point/clone/) instead.
|
