Duplicate item in print queue#433

M

There may be another way to do this but in a nutshell i’d like the ability to duplicate an existing item in the print queue
Not add more copies of the same one, but duplicate it

Reason being is I can have multi part assemblies, I don’t want to print i.e. 15x of Part A and then print 15x of Part B. I would rather stagger them and print i.e. 3x of Part A, 3x Part B then repeat that 5 times until the order is fulfilled

Duplicating would also make it easier to change the colour, just duplicate the existing item with all of its existing tags, then change the duplicated tag from Black to Red and hey presto i’ll get another 3x parts in a different colour. Saves having to go through the process of reslicing the file over and over again just to add more copies to the queue

In my case, I suggest adding a quick “Duplicate” action for items that are already in the print queue. This would be incredibly useful for 3D print farms and e-commerce businesses that rely on batch production to prevent stockouts. For example, when manufacturing inventory, I often need to print 10 units of the exact same G-code, followed by 10 units of another, and repeat the cycle. Instead of manually searching and adding the same file to the queue multiple times, a simple duplication button would drastically speed up the workflow.
