Enable copy and paste function for a whole section in reports and event types
Currently a lot of duplicates are required to create multi report of the same information with a slight difference in one or two criteria. The same problem is encountered with goal creation for different assessment.

Terry JuddThis is probably related - I'd like to see the ability to be able to drag elements from one section to another within a form. At the moment you have to delete an element in its existing section and then recreate it from scratch within the new section. This can be pretty annoying/time consuming when designing complex forms/workflows. Might also be useful to be able to merge whole sections at times - which could also reduce the amount of removing and adding of elements that is currently required.

Terry JuddHaving just had to manually duplicate a bunch of sections in a bunch of forms (we're talking about having to replicate and configure several hundred form elements here) to work around an assessor verification issue I can't emphasise enough how useful this feature would be.

TerryThis suggestion has been languishing for almost 4 years now but remains as useful/relevant now as when it was first proposed. Given that there is nothing stopping you from creating sections with identical contents within the same event you'd reckon that duplicating sections should also be doable. Yes you would need to remove any existing 'visibility and workflow' settings from the duplicate, but those are relatively easy to reapply/modify. In evidence... I just spent at least 40 minutes 'duplicating' a section that contained approximately 60 elements, of which only 2 were unique.
