I wanted to copy a component from a remote official lib to a local lib to get a base to a new component.
Unfortunately the "copy" does not exist. Just "move" and "duplicate".
So why not doing a duplicate then a move ?
Unfortunately, duplicate is not allowed in remote lib as it is "read only".
So I tried to move the component and as remote lib is read only, it will do a copy.
I was wrong ! The component disappears from the original lib.
So tried to duplicate the component in the local lib (this is allowed) and move the original component back to the remote lib.
But unfortunately, this is not allowed
So I have to delete the remote lib and install it back !
SOLUTION
This is a long way to do that and I was not really sure what to do.
Luckily Urban helps me.
We have to found a better way to do that.
Create a "duplicate to other lib" feature ?
And also I don't understand why sometimes it tells the "filesystem is read only" (duplicate), but sometimes allow to change it (move to other lib, remove, ...).
And also add a force to update lib in the lib manager.
(the user do not know if suppress/reinstall is safe or not for his design)
