Copy confirmation, odometer roll

Variant: Odometer roll

Icon and label ride one track that rolls up a row in 220ms. There are three rows — Copy, Copied, Copy — so the reset rolls in the same direction instead of rewinding, and a single transform moves both halves, which is why they can never land a frame apart. The most physical of the three: it suits toolbars whose buttons already read as keys.
