📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The changes add element duplication functionality to the custom dashboard component. Users can duplicate selected elements via keyboard shortcut (Cmd/Ctrl+D) or a new toolbar button. The duplication clones the element with a unique ID, offsets its position, copies its configuration, and fetches data for applicable element types while marking the canvas as unsaved.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Element Duplication Feature `src/dashboard/Data/CustomDashboard/CustomDashboard.react.js`	Added `handleDuplicateElement(id)` method to clone elements with unique IDs and position offsets; integrated Cmd/Ctrl+D keyboard handler in `handleKeyDown`; added Duplicate button to toolbar in `renderToolbar`; includes selective data fetching for graph, dataTable, and view element types; marks canvas as having unsaved changes
