hey ij!

is there a way to write a single line of command to copy and paste more than one widget from one card to another?

i have widgets X, Y and Z stored in card A, and so far i can import each of them separately to card B by writing

card.add[deck.cards.A.widgets.X]
card.add[deck.cards.A.widgets.Y] 
card.add[deck.cards.A.widgets.Z]

but i can't really nail a way to import all three of them with a single line (unless i call all three lines with an .eval[]).

i saw in the decker manual that you can use the .add[] command to import a list or dictionary of widgets from another card, but i don't see how.

thank you!

Hi, I'm not IJ but I did some experimentation and I think I've figured it out - it seems the card.copy and card.paste commands let you copy multiple widgets at once.

So you'd do like this:

card.paste[A.copy[A.widgets.X,A.widgets.Y,A.widgets.Z]]

(As a side note, if you're referring to a card in a script you can just use the card's name, you don't need the deck.cards in front of it)

Let me know if this works for you!

Just to build on this, if the only widgets on card A are X, Y, and Z, you can copy them all with:

A.copy[A.widgets]

And here's one other slightly more concise way to select a bunch of widgets by name:

A.copy[A.widgets @ "X","Y","Z"]

i learned so much today!
