Hi there, I was wondering if anyone know if there is a function for working on timelines to either duplicate the item selected, or alt+drag to duplicate an item further down the timeline?

If not, I’d love to see that as a feature in the future.

Cheers

Currently, the easiest way to duplicate timeline elements is to copy + paste them in place. That said, I’ve noted your suggestions on our internal feature/improvement tracker - I can definitely see the convenience of a click + drag duplication function, and while we do have an existing duplication function, it currently doesn’t work with timeline content, so that’d definitely an area to look into.

Thanks! Yeah it would be handy especially when working with a bunch of music loops
