copy and past meta data of states

[franzlst]

The ability to copy the format of a state (esp. size) would help to have nicely formatted states inside one hierarchy level.

Yeah that would be like a format copy in a text editor like LibreOffice or Word. Nice thing. We could simple put it on strg-shift-c and strg-shift-v.

Implementation should be very easy but the expected behavior can divert:

• in case of a port the position has to be copied
• in case of a state it size and it port relative positions to be able to use it more generic
• only support of 1 to 1 or 1 to n meta data copy actions

That are the User-Features which I would start with and see how useful it becomes and where to place menu-items.

• in the menu-bar
• in the right click menu in the state machine editor and the state machine tree (in both to give the user a better hand to use it the first time (with short-cut on the menu-item))
