Workflow to Layout Snippets Into Arrangement, Left-to-Right (Solved)

Posted Fri, 2024-03-08 - 15:25

Hi,

Can anyone recommend what they consider their most efficient workflow for taking a set of Snippets and laying them out into the Arr Structure left-to-right? (with multiples as necessary)

I mean, I'd love to be able to drag a snippet in, then just duplicate it to the right of itself instantly as many times as needed. Unf., that does not seem possible, so what's the best alternative?

Not sure what you mean. Do you mean to drag a set of snippets into the arrangement at once or do you mean to duplicate one snippet in the arrangement (which is then a container) multiple times like in this Gif?

Yes, like your .gif.

If you are actually doing it that fast, that's exactly my goal.

Yes, with a second of preparation it is acually that fast: First select the container one hierarchy level above (here the root container) and check the option "Keep containers in a row". Then select the container you want to duplicate and hit Ctrl D to duplicate it as many times as you need. After that operation you can deselect "Keep container in a row" again, if you don't need it any further.
