Description

This little script will help you transfer arbitrary properties from one object to another. All properties that you selected that have matching names and types in the destination nodes will get the property values of the source node. You also have the option of instancing the source value's controller across the updated properties.

Additional Info

I did a brief search and saw there are other solutions for this scenario. I'm just sharing a UI and functions that I think are useful for the kinds of things I do.

its useless, for beginer at least, because in the listbox it only listed the object properties without knowing the value it contained, so how would I copy something that i dont know which one to copy ?

Ouch... useless is a pretty harsh label.

I made this tool in response to a specific request. Sure, it could be expanded to include a datagrid of values. But that's for some future version, possibly.

I'm pretty shocked you'd label it useless, however. I've found it to be useful.
