There are so many different attributes that one might wish to copy and paste ... some times, and other attributes, some other times. A fixed set of attributes will never fit all situations. And beside, it's not clear what is copied and what isnt. AMOF I never know. A fixed user config (in the parameters) would maybe improve that or at least document it lol. « Choose what the "copy style tool" copies » But is that an application wide choice ? I feel it's not : it depends on use cases, and it will vary inside a same document. So it needs a local choice each time one wishes to use the tool. Optionaly add a dialog featuring a list of sets of attributes so as to choose what to copy ? Lets imagine : CLICK on the button applies standard choices (or previous selection), and SHIFT CLICK on the button first asks what attributes should be copied. |

and what about a way to bookmark that complex selection of properties? ... we could name that a "frame style"... |
