Copy af visual to a new one

I would like to make a new visual by copying it from another one. I use CTRL+C and CTRL+V. Howevre when i change anything on the copy it also changes the first one. I want to use them as two diffent visuals.

 

The copying is instead of building a new one from scatch as the 2 visiuals are almost identitcal (only at criteria on a column differs).

Hi @HenrikH29,

 

Based on my test in desktop version 2.44.4675.521, after copy one visual and changed something in the copy will not reflect to the original one. In your scenario, please try to use the same desktop version as ours.

Im using exactly that version. I took a copy and wanted to change one of the tables with another. That had an impact on both the copy and the original visual.

 

I had to start with a new visual from scratch to make it work.

 

But thanks for the reply.

Hi @HenrikH29,

 

There is a new desktop version released, please check if the issue persists.
