Where did this function go? Whenever I created a test database configuration it was so easy to clone an existing project. Without this feature I need to define which tables to include, and then reset the filtering criteria for specific tables. I hope it was an oversight on my part.

    Hi,

    "Clone" was replaced with "Save As", as this doesn't force you to accept changes you may have made to a project.

    Hope this makes sense.

    My only issue with that scheme is that now a file naming scheme has to be developed. In the earlier version this was done automatically based on the database names and dates. Maybe the save as function could mimic the earlier version as a default.

    You're right about the lack of auto-filenaming and it's something we're aware of (internal issue: SDC-645). It's on the candidate list for inclusion in a future version.

    Thanks for raising this.
