If you have many instances of a component, and you set props a certain way on the 1st instance, there is no way to quickly apply the same prop config to all other instances.

  • “Paste to replace” does not work.
  • “Paste properties” only pastes the visual properties (color, border…)
  • In some cases (e.g. slotting), duplicating the 1st instance many times is not possible.

→ A “Copy/Paste component properties” item in the context menu would be very useful, and show an error tooltip (like for Paste to replace) if the target component is not the same as the destination one.

I would also find this feature very useful! Current plug-in solutions don’t work properly.
