P.Slicer Wishlist - Copy multiples with layout (arrange)

Hi

Not sure if there is an official wishlist for PrusaSlicer but i would like to see a copy feature  with an option to control multiples and layout.

Right now in 2.3 rc3, if i copy and paste, a new object is placed diagonally and i have to copy/paste manually each time.

i would like a feature to copy and then select  'paste multiples' where i can set 9 item on X axes on 4 items on y axes, maybe even set spacing between objects.

I could do this in fusion360 for example, but my preference in to do it in the slicer where i can also control extruders and per object printing.

very powerful when printing many small parts that need assembly.

Thanks for the great product. Best slicer out there.

This is a user-user support forum and while some Prusa employees do poke in on occasion, it's not a good place to communicate with them. The closest thing to an official wishlist is the Prusa GitHub site. If you are willing to format it correctly, you can submit a feature request and if it gets enough upvotes, it will probably get developer attention... eventually. 

Sounds like a useful and relatively easy-to-implement feature, so it can't hurt to ask. The usability of PrusaSlicer has improved quite a bit in recent months.
