Paste Element - As Copy
« on: April 27, 2009, 03:36:45 pm »
Hey people,


When you drag an element from the project browser onto a diagram, you get the Paste Element dialog asking you if you want the element pasted in as a Simple Link, an Instance or a new Child.

I'd like a fourth option, As Copy, which would then result in an Enter Name dialog, ie the same behaviour as copy - Paste As New.

Small thing, but it'd be a convenience.

My theories are always correct, just apply them to the right reality.

Not quite what you're asking for, but...

Did you know that you can copy/clone a diagram object by Ctrl+Dragging it to somewhere else on the same diagram.
