Copying a Project would also copy metadata display settings (and order)

Especially with the advent of Productions, I'm making tons of Projects. Typically one for each scene of a film. It's really tedious and time consuming, however, because the folder/font size and the metadata display properties of a duplicated project do not carry over I need to change it repeatedly for each.

 

Metadata display is particularly tedious because I after I load the metadata display settings,  that in itself doesn't save the order of the different columns. All in all it adds up to about 20+ seconds for each bin project. Given that I make upwards of 60 projects, this ends up taking a significant amount of time. Time I'm not moving forward on my edit, and also a very automatable process.

@lehestro I'll make sure to get this to the right team, I'd imagine any duplicated projects should maintain the column sizing and order.

 

But also I wanted to direct you to a little-known feature of the Project panel: Project View Presets. You can find them in the panel menu (the three horizontal lines next to the project/bin name in the tab). These let you make keyboard shortcut-able presets of how the Project panel is configured which includes which columns are turned on and in what order as well as some of the other Project panel view settings. This way you can always be one key press away from your desired setup, even when opening a project from someone else.
