Feature Request: CAN Mapping copy/paste (duplicate)

Glad to hear about the upcoming v2.0 app. Could we get a feature to copy and paste a CAN signal (channel) in the CAN Mapping? It would be convenient to copy/paste, or duplicate, an existing CAN signal and then change only what is different, such as name and offset.

Though I suppose as a workaround, we could directly edit the .rcp file using something like Notepad++ :wink:

Well, directly editing the .rcp file using Notepad++ works quite fine. Go to the Language menu and select JSON to help so you don't inadvertently make a syntax mistake.

Thanks to @brentp and the Autosport Labs team, the variable names are obvious enough to support manual editing if you want to copy and paste and alter to make a new CAN signal.

So I'd say this is a pretty low priority feature request. I'd much rather have the bug in bitmode mask get fixed instead. :wink:
