Trying to find a easy way to mass copy and update filters.
For the projects I am working on I have many filters about 45 over all for the different things I have to do for the projects. Well I have ~45 filters for each Release ie 1, 2, 3. We are done with 1 but now starting 1.1. I need to keep for history the original filters for release 1 so I need to copy the filters from the ones I had for release 1 and then update them for the fix version, etc. Names are similar so just copy not save as the filter, change name to new release 1.1, then save that, Do that for all ~45 filters then go back and update what I need to update for release 1.1. I have filters calling other filters, so change request document filter, for project A, B, C for Release 1 come from same "master" list so I use the master filter then separate out project from the master. So this means normally I end up having to edit majority of the 45 to have in the "called" filters the new name (1.1 scia) vs (1 scia). This is a very time consuming process and when you have to do this for multiple releases it is even more so. If I have unfavorited filters it even makes it harder because I can't just look down my list of favorites and copy. I have to either open it and save as (this is a pain because doesn't retain any of the name) or temporarily favorite them again which clogs up my list.
