#12 Easy Copy Info
Did you know that you can really easily copy variable information around, using copy and paste?
This is something that a lot of people probably already know about but if you don’t, it’s going to be a game-changer. It’s a tip that you should definitely include in your normal workflow as it will save you a lot of time and hassle.
Basically, you can right-click copy on variables in engine and then paste that info to other variables of the same/similar type. On the more obvious end of the scale you can do this for copying locations (Vectors) from one asset to another. But you can also do this in more places than you would first think. For example, copying entire Arrays, or for me, as I’m colourblind and I find it super useful for quickly copy/pasting linear colour variables to help keep continuity across my UI.
