Synchronizing a structure from its source after is has been copied

Question

Hi,

Using the structure plug-in, I was wondering if we could synchronize a structure from its source after it has been copied.

In the company I'm working for, we use a structure ST on a project PT, and then copy it into a structure S1 in the project P1, into S2 for the project P2, etc.

If at some time we add a new issue PT-X into the "template" structure ST, is there a way to create the same issue in the other structures (P1-X in S1, P2-X in S2) ?

Thanks you for any feedback,

Damien.

Hi Damien,

Currently, there's no straightforward way to do that - one has to do it manually. We could add this as a feature request, but there's a question - what if structure S1 changed? Also, what kind of changes in the template structure would you need to be reflected in the specific structure? (Basically, there are additions, removals and moves.)

Thanks,
Igor
