Clone Locality WITH Geology Attributes #2496

Closed Jegelewicz closed 4 years ago

Jegelewicz commented 4 years ago

Issue Documentation is http://handbook.arctosdb.org/how_to/How-to-Use-Issues-in-Arctos.html

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When I clone a locality, the clone contains NONE of the geology attributes from the original and I have to re-enter all of the geology attributes if I want them in the clone.

Describe what you're trying to accomplish I would like to be able to clone a locality along with its geology attributes to create a new locality. Currently I have a "public" locality with geology attributes that I clone to set up "private" locality. The new locality will have additional attributes, but will also include all of the public geology attributes.

Describe the solution you'd like An option to "clone with geology attributes"

Describe alternatives you've considered Enter all the geology attributes twice.

Additional context Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.

Priority Please assign a priority-label.

Done in PG

Jegelewicz commented 4 years ago

That probably isn't going to help me as I am doing this right now and expect it to be ongoing for the next several months...

Would you like to suggest procedures then? This is "I know how to do it," "high priority," and doesn't require any structural changes, which is what I'm looking for lately, but there's nothing else I can do so it's just annoying. I more or less get the idea that you don't want to accept things you can't test (or even if you'd want to wait for 'tested in production' to fully close), but I need SOMETHING I can use to filter this thing into another pile, and then perhaps something so that pile doesn't just hang around until it's impossible to deal with.

Help!

Maybe we aren't speaking the same language? I just mean that it is awesome to have this working in PG, but I could really use it NOW in actual, functioning Arctos. See pending documentation. If this is not at all possible, then close the issue and I will just have to enter all of these geology attributes twice until PG.
