Duplicate column

It’d be fantastic if we have the option to duplicate a column. I often want to make a table with a few columns that have say choices like yes, no maybe, never, next. Currently I have to type these for each option, but it’d be fantastic if we could just duplicate the whole column!

Good idea! I find myself wanting it too. :slight_smile:

By the way, did you know you can copy and paste a full list of choices from one column’s choice editor to another? Not as quick as duplicating the column, but it may save you some time typing.

Newly released hidden feature: if you copy cells from a column and paste them into a new completely empty column, the column’s type and options will be copied, including choices configuration.

While that worked with options, it didn´t work with styles.

Maybe the fact the cell I copied was a formula? With styles? If I copy the cell, it copies the cell value, but it’s not going with styles.

If I click twice to copy the formula, it also doesn´t go with styles

I am creating a table with numerous similar columns, and it is time-consuming to copy and paste the trigger formulas and conditional styles for each column. So, having the ability to duplicate columns with all their parameters intact would be nice. This feature would allow to simply modify the necessary values after duplication.
