Feature Request - Copy as New

[bronzegoddess]

If copying and pasting the same scene, it does not work.
I beleive obs matches the UUID's and ignores everything.

I tried saving a source to disk, modifying the "name" keys using find a replace.

For example:

• Export Scene: Overlays-Twitch
• Find / Replace Text: "twitch" > "youtube"
• Save Json as Overlays-YouTube
• Import back into OBS

This still is not working.
Although the new scenes and sources show up with different names, they are broken when it comes to filters.

Solution:
If we can have an option to Paste as New and have it replace all instances of UUID with new random ones I think it might work?
Not sure if anyone other than myself uses this for their workflow, but I find myself moving scenes between collections quite often.

Thanks!!!!

You can remove the uuid from the json to make it create new sources when the name is unique.
I might be able to make it a feature in the plugin.
