Re: Library Editor refactor

 

It was not as difficult as I initially thought, meaning the libedit
branch now also offers cut/copy/paste for graphical items in the library
editor. There is nothing else I could add to the branch, so as long as
there are no known bugs, I consider it ready for merging.

Cheers,
Orson
