Committed on 07/05/2026 at 10:30. Pushed by sune into branch 'master'. Add ability to copy and paste annotations I personally ran into this issue multiple times and it was very tedious to individually create the same annotations over and over, so I finally tried to take a shot at fixing it.

FWIW this should be really simple to do, we have a way to store annotations to xml and a way to create them from xml, so creating it's mostly the copy/paste glue code that's missing -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I suggested that in Bug 420571. Or is this only about copying the shape of an annotation, and using that shape again for a new annotation somewhere else? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Note that you're using software which is almost four years old. I would strongly recommend upgrading to Ubuntu 20.04 at the minimum, and preferably an even newer version, like 21.04 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
