[GitHub] [superset] andrewscarani opened a new issue #15562: Improve Cloning Chart Flow

andrewscarani opened a new issue #15562:
URL: https://github.com/apache/superset/issues/15562


   **Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
   The current flow used to clone a chart allows for one to mistakenly overwrite the existing chart and isn't intuitive to new users. Current flow involves the following steps:
   - Click `View chart in Explore` from chart's dropdown
   - Click `Save`
   - Click `Save as...` (This is the step that's often forgotten)
   - And then begin to make changes to the chart
   
   If you click `View chart in Explore` and then forget to save first, you may make changes to an existing chart someone else is using and thus cause issues in your instance.
   
   **Describe the solution you'd like**
   It would be great to have an item on the charts dropdown, right under "View query" called "Clone":

   that, when clicked, brings-up the "Save As" modal for a chart (but without the radio button allowing you to rename the chart), and allows you to instantly clone the one you're looking at:

   An example of the "Clone" button existing on the dropdown menu in Chartio:

   thanks for suggesting! we have a discussion thread in Superset roadmap repo, which is a bit outdated. https://github.com/apache-superset/superset-roadmap/issues/109 
   all good ideas, but we are slow in implementing the solution. If you would like to open a PR that can cover most of the concerns in the thread, we are happy to help push it forward. 🙏
