Hi,

It'd be useful to copy and paste individual blocks from one object's layout to another, carrying forward any block references/functions applied to that particular block. This would remove the need to duplicate the same work across multiple objects requiring that same cube; making it more efficient to develop objects that are using the same blocks.

For example, if I need to display "TY Store SOH" in two objects, I'd be able to paste block 'bj' without having the copy/paste the entire layout/object or reapplying the block references in the second object.

Thanks,

Waleed

    This would be so useful as currently the copy/paste layout essentially wipes what was previously in the layout that is being pasted to. Perhaps the better way would be to have a tick box that allows you to select specific blocks to copy in the first layout and then to paste that without deleting any of the old blocks in the second layout.
