Copy/paste in the design view?

[Philip_J]

Hi All,

This should be a simple yes/no question unless I’m missing something.

Just want to know if you can copy/paste components in the design view/app connect panel?

There doesn’t appear to be any way of doing it, currently I’m copy/pasting in the code view.

I know you can duplicate and move components, but this doesn’t help if you want to use/reuse something from another page.

Thanks.
Phil

Hi Phil,

Copy and paste in the App Structure panel isn’t supported indeed. There is a feature request you can vote to:

Copy elements to another page

I would like the option to select an element e.g. a Navbar in one page and paste it into a new page or replace an existing Navbar in a second page. Sometimes I need to adapt the same Navbar in several pages. In Wappler I only see Duplicate, Delete and Move to include. In DW it is easy to copy and paste elements between pages. Will this be possible in Wappler ? It is timewasting to do the same adaption on every page separately.

ok thanks George. will do.

I’ll also look into SSI that was mentioned in that post

If this request is implemented at some point, perhaps the suggestions made in this thread could also be considered/incorporated - in particular, copying elements from the App Connect panel.
