As you’ve discovered, copy creates a linked copy. You actually want to use the clone command instead of copy. Select all of the cells in the level you want to duplicate (click on the left edge of the level in the Xsheet or the top edge in the Timeline), then in the top menu, go to Cells -> Clone.

FYI You can use the Palette Filter Fx to obtain both the filled and the outline images from the single column.
