I am sure you have this in pipeline but would be great to have sooner from my point of view. @dan you and the team are amazing at answering questions and producing examples at break neck speed. However, in previous versions of RW you could buy templates and or like me have a project which I work on design and play to get exactly what I want,. This was great especially for my corporate bits like headers, footers, colour schemes etc. I would to copy and paste from one project to another. Currently this function does not exist or is there an way to copy and paste a page from one project to another please?

Hi @PMUK,

that would be a scenario to build a dev-pack for. That’s similiar like a Custom Component but can be used accross projects.

Cheers 🍺

You can copy and paste betweeen documents, make sure you have the component selected in the Editor when you copy (Command-C), and then in the other document, make sure the Editor has focus and then paste (Command-V).

Like this…

Thanks thats copies a part of page I meant like on old RW where you grab page in side bar and copy the whole page across, not just part of page. TIA
