Import Config Buttons Window - Import Connections Behavior Set All Button

[jreynolds67]

Is this a feature relevant to companion itself, and not a specific module?

• [x] I believe this to be a feature for companion, and is not specific to a module

Is there an existing issue for this?

• [x] I have searched for similiar existing issues

Describe the feature

In the Import Config Buttons Tab, at the bottom under the Import Connections Behavior, it would be nice if there was an ignore all button instead of clicking through 30+ connections every time I need to copy a page around. That said, that workflow is only to duplicate pages, so better yet is a way to duplicate pages to other pages, which I'm sure has been ticketed before. Still, an ignore all button could be useful.

@jreynolds67, if your goal is to just copy pages around within your current set of pages why do you need to click "ignore"? Isn't the default to just keep your connections the same as they are?

I think I was getting confused by this interface. What are those connections below displaying? The connections to be imported or the ones that already exist? How are they referenced - by some ID, by their label?

@jreynolds67, my understanding is that it's just a mapping of the modules you are currently using (in the pulldowns) to the modules referenced in the import file (middle and right columns).

I think it's a bit confusing because the mappings show up even if a particular page doesn't use those modules, but the few times I've used it, I just leave the default mappings and everything is fine (no new modules added).

@arikorn I had noticed basically the same thing, it always seemed to work. My concern came because I have two companion instances in two control rooms at our facility. They are identical except for some IPs changed, and I didn't want to blow out any room specific programming I had done.
