How to copy paste something from revit file to revit file at same position ?

When you copy paste something from a revit file into another revit file, you can see that it knows where it was placed in the same coordinates. Is there a way to say to revit to place the copied object at the same location ? Because you can't really place your mouse at exactly the same position, however Revit knows this position.

Here is an example : The red arrows show where the element was placed in the other revit file, and it happens to be exactly where I want the object to be place. My mouse (in blue) is on screen and I'm trying to move it so that both "dot line light blue squares" can't meet perfectly but it's never the case. help mehelp meI've tried pressing Ctrl+Enter or Alt+Enter and nothing happens. Is there something I'm missing ?

Please help me, thank you.
