"Selective Copy" in "history stack" should default to none selected #17228

Closed ptilopteri closed 1 month ago

ptilopteri commented 3 months ago

currently when one activates "selective copy" in the "history stack", all applicable modules are selected which requires clearing current selection and then selecting desired modules. this duplicates the option in "history stack" of "copy".

"selective copy" should default to no selection and leave the operator to make his own selections.

better user experience.

This comes up from time to time, including your own previous #14740. There are arguments either way, and I guess none have ever gotten enough traction for a dev to sit down and code something.

On my side after years of using copy/part I have always first clicked on button to unselect all items. So I'm in favor of doing that. I'll do a PR and we will see...

yes, it is illogical to choose "selective copy" and then to have to unselect unwanted items.
