It's hard to find how to add entities to existing views #7194

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Lets say I have two features sensor/feature1 and sensor/feature2 and I want them in the same chart, I have to add sensor to a new space view. But what if I added sensor/feature1 and then decided that I want sensor/feature2 in there as well? --> I have to make a new spaceview

Describe the solution you'd like An addition to the right-click menu of the streams with the option to add to existing space view. This could also allow me to combine data from different parents (e.g. sensor1/feature3 and sensor3/feature10)

Context menu for adding to entities to existing views makes sense to me. Drag an drop would also be nice (issue about this here. But generally this is already available via the contents of a view. They are are also accessible from blueprint

Is that what you meant? changed title & tagging now to indicate a usability issue, but please let me know if you wanted something else, thank you!

@Wumpf Yeah exactly. That was hidden in plain sight, I was trying to drag the streams, right click them, right click the views but didn't think of looking on the right panel. Thanks alot, that helps for now.
