    Copy/paste the settings of status/graphics

    I have HS4 root device with 20 features. All 20 features must have exactly the same status/graphics settings.
    Is it possible to setup one of the 20 and copy/paste the settings for the rest. It's really annoying to do it 20 times.

    It is not. If you create one feature with the correct status/graphics pairs, you can use the bulk edit copy function to copy that feature as many times as you need.

      I thought someone had come up with a way of copying status/graphics from one device to another? A script perhaps?

      EDIT: Here's the script I was thinking of. No idea if it works with HS4.

        I responded in the linked thread. Since our family Christmas in on "snow delay" until my daughter can get here, I can take a look at the script.

        Can you tell me about the Root/Features you are trying to copy? Is it from a plugin or is it a virtual device? The original author has a warning to not use the script with devices that were created by plugins.

          This may be helpful (or maybe not):

          I have two virtual devices with 56 features each that needed to have the same status/graphics.

          You can create one exactly the way you want, then use bulk copy for one, then two, then three, and so on until you have the number of devices you desire.

          It will append "copy" to the device name, so you will need to edit the names.

          This works for new virtual devices, not for copying to existing ones.
