Copy entry between databases #1054

Open FreddieOliveira opened 3 years ago

FreddieOliveira commented 3 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Let's suppose you have 2 different databases and you wanna copy an entry from one to another. Currently, the only way is to create a new entry on the desired db and copy field by field. This has the disadvantage of being very time consuming and also it won't copy the history.

Describe the solution you'd like The ideal solution would be to somehow retain the copied entry when closing the database and opening another one, so the entry can be pasted into there.

Describe alternatives you've considered Maybe a more feasible and secure alternative would be to create an export option as follow: when tapping and holding an entry, add a new export button in the lower tab along with the cut, copy and three dots buttons. When clicking on this export button a new window will be opened so the user can select a destiny database. After selecting the target database and unlocking it, both databases will be unlocked at the same time, allowing the entry to be copied between them. After the exportation, the target database is automatically locked again and the window goes back to where it was. This option could be implemented for folders too.

Thanks in advanced. Much respect for this project 👏👍

This feature requires the ability to open multiple databases at the same time, I am refactoring the code to make this possible. Linked to https://github.com/Kunzisoft/KeePassDX/issues/209
