> yet it's hard to just say "use all the values from the previous one"

Whaa- I'm kind of amazed they don't have this given how easy it would be to add.

I just added this exact feature to Radius because our event form was growing and becoming quite painful to fill out - it's just a dropdown with previous events at the top of the event form, nothing complex, but a huge time saver.



Why improve the product when you can coast on your brand's previously earned credibility until you sell again?!

(/s, just in case)


That’s adobe’s whole biz model. It works really well


Adobe has some top-tier software though and they keep improving it. It's like a senior leader at my company said - "Oracle's a terrible company but their stuff works". This was during a discussion of another company's software that was also a black box and didn't even work well.


Top tier software from a functionality standpoint, but not from a usability standpoint.

In my experience, oracle stuff barely works too, unless you pay for extra support that is.
