Duplicate without content not working as I expect

Elements B27 (23161)
I added a grid, added a text box, put some text in it then right clicked in the tree and selected “Duplicate Without Content” but I get an exact copy of the first text box. Am I missing something?

Hi @RussOggi255,

This option will duplicate the selected Component without any of the Child components. Maybe we should rename it “Duplicate Without Child Nodes” :thinking:

Take a look at the following video to see how it works, the bit about “Duplicate Without Content” starts at around 2:50.

Hope that helps!

Thanks, that makes sense now. I was expecting to create a text box, apply formatting etc. then if I needed a few more text boxes, use this and then fill the new ones in with text but keep the formatting of the first box.

It looks like a great product. Looking forward to using it on a real website.
