Copy and paste items only copy texts in current language, others are lost #8818

Open Clooney24 opened 2 years ago

Clooney24 commented 2 years ago

I'm using Composer with currently 3 languages. When I working in English and copy and paste a question or a "Send a response"-item it first looks good, but switching language shows that only the texts in current language were copied and all texts in all other languages are lost.

Version: 2.1.1 Electron: 8.2.4 Chrome: 80.0.3987.165 NodeJS: 12.13.0 V8: 8.0.426.27-electron.0

Hello @tdurnford, the support team was able to reproduce this but we would appreciate if you know if this is by design or a bug, thanks.

I had a bot using 30 languages - imagine how this works when copying items only copies 1 language then you have to re-enter the 29 others manually if you where lucky having stored them somewhere before? Besides this, it would take 60-90 minutes with current composer UI performance just to copy this one item. Please don't tell it's by design ;-)

@Clooney24 Thank you for engaging with the Composer project. We'll take this issue as a feature request and add it to the backlog for prioritization. We do not have an ETA at this time for when this feature will be available.

Is there a place where I can challenge this decision? Copy/cut/paste is already an existing feature. And the fact that it is silently dropping existing text ressources is a clear bug in my point of view. That's not just nice-to-have, working with huge multi-language-dialogs, it is an everyday problem.
