Re: [PATCH] Add duplicate zone onto layer tool

 

I have never used it and I find the menu in legacy a bit to cluttered.

an alternative might be that when duplicating a layer (Ctrl+D), It would get duplicated to the chosen layer in the right hand layer menu, as with tracks.

Just as sidenote, that is the zone feature I use the most :)

    Hi,

    I committed the patch just to remove any potential 'this is not
    available in GAL' complaints, but IMHO this particular feature is
    needless and clutters the menu.

    The code itself is obviously fine, I am just considering the value of
    having a dedicated menu entry for such operation, but we can discuss it
    later.

    Regards,
    Orson
