creator-studio pins maps

What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?

When creating a set of new pins, you currently have to fill out all the details (offset, position...) for each pin separately. This is a cumbersome process.  

How does this feature request address the current situation?

Add a "duplicate" button to the "Creator Studio: Pins" area for each pin, in addition to the already present "Edit" and "Delete" buttons. Clicking this button will clone that pin and take you right to the clone. This way only the title and image of the pin would need to be edited by the user to create a new pin in the same "set". It'd make the process of making a whole bunch of pins at once much faster.   Note: This is NOT a duplicate of https://www.worldanvil.com/community/voting/suggestion/c49f37d6-188e-4b8b-94c4-706ab46e49f2/view. That suggestion had to do with cloning a pin on a map, this suggestion is about cloning pins when creating new pin types in the creator's studio.

The Team's Response

This suggestion did not reach the required number of votes to be considered   It's a good suggestion but it received very little support, I would love to implement but I cannot justify it right now, please feel free to resubmit at a later date.

    When making pins for a large number of similar locations (such as settlements) it would be very helpful if the map could be populated using this cloning feature and then each pin edited to put in its unique information later. Not to mention if some selection is not the normal default for a pin, a lot of time can be saved by cloning pins so that each new pin comes with the settings all of the pins will have after only having to set it once instead of having to set each individually.
