Is there a way to copy dynamic component attributes over to a different one?

[zjperozzi228]

I would like to basically move a dynamic component attribute list over to another component. Is there an easy way to do this?

I don’t know one other than making a copy of the first one and getting rid of things you don’t want before adding in anything new you do.

You can use Attribute inspector to add dictionaries to components
Check this thread:

DC - Is there a way to copy/paste an attribute, or is there a hack to copy all the List items to another attribute list

F.e as an sample case to make it clear what I need. I’am creating a concrete foundation with insulation like EPS. I want to make it so that the user can set the thickness of the front insulation, the under ( between dirt and beam ) insulation, the back side ( inner ) insulation and so on. This means I have to make 3 or more lists where the user can choose from the different thickness and pressure ( like EPS100, EPS150 or EPS 250 e.t.c ). That means I will be two hours typing with unless someon…

i often create a “template” component which has all (and sometime more) of the attributes i’ll need to similar components, then i import that into a model, add the other parts and connect them to the “parent” (the innards of which is really just a simple square placeholder which can be erased). then just strip away any attributes which aren’t needed. or as suggested use the Attribute Inspector to update (although it can be a bit tricky at first until you know the different sections needed for a given attribute type - there’s no “bulk copy” - that i’ve found)
