I’ve been community surfing recently and came across posts where users were questioning how to copy elements from watchface to watchface.
It seemed to be impossible to do. I’m a new Facer user and I have discovered today that because I use 2 screens I can have Chrome on one and Edge on the other and open facer on both! This means that I can copy and paste elements between the two instances (watchfaces). Hope this helps others - it certainly makes my life easier!

That sounds like an interesting idea, I have a watchface I’m working on right now where that will come in handy. Thanks for the heads up.

I think this is working from a tab to a different tab. Not necessary has to be two browsers. Not tried, but seem logical.

I think it’s one browser one instance of Facer meaning that even if you open a new tab facer won’t start a new instance if it is already open in another tab - at least that’s the case on my PC

I managed to open two separate Creator tabs, each with different designs in the same browser, but I didn’t managed to copy elements from one to another. I`ll try this at home also.

I do this regularly, open 2 tabs and copy code from one to the other (especially when I want to update many faces with the same element)

I can cut and paste code but can you copy ELEMENTS across - it’s this that saves time!
I’ve been doing the two windows copy and paste element data into a new element on another watchface for a while now. I tried to copy and paste the whole element and also just sliding it from one window to another window and it will not work that way. I wish it would also, but oh well, we play the cards we are delt and move on.
