Copy paste / duplicate variable name+description+levels
Posted: Wed Nov 03, 2021 11:01 am
Hello,
i am a starter in statistics and using of Jamovi, hope my question car be understandable.
For a student exercise, i have to treat a lot of data from a xls file.
Some of this datas are series of questions with big similarities. Same levels, small differences in name and description.
Some screen to illustrate what i mean : as you can see upside, there are lot of similarities between q1.1 and q1.2
And this is the same for q1.3 4 5...
And, more, the same for Q2 Q3 Q4...
So i would like to start to configure one variable, and duplicate it a lot of time. After what i can just modify what is necessary to modify.
Do you see what i mean ?
But i am not able to do this. the better i succeed was to copy name of variable. But when i try copy paste on columns, i can copy paste the datas below, but not the description and levels of the variable.
I hope it is possible, but can't find how to do it.
I must say i use Jamovi 2.2.2 on Ubuntu 18.04 and i have also PSPPIRE installed (maybe that can help ? But i never used this soft, just installed it because the professor tells he used to work with this one)
