Apply Copied Filters

I see, so it’s basically a paste multiple but with a twist.

I have a couple of thoughts/suggestions:

  1. add 2 separate right click entries: “Apply filters on top/bottom” (begining/end?)
    → It could be helpful in some specific scenarios (like mine from a while back) .
    → if there’s multiple filters already there, it would only affect the top/bottom one? This complicates the logic a bit but I find it weird to apply the change to all filters with the same name

  2. this would be a completely different feature but related enough as the wording in “Updating previously applied filters” made me remember it from the Blender 3D program where a material could be “applied” to multiple clips and changing some value in it would automatically update all other instances of that same filter. Basically the same way a track head filter behaves but limited to a selection of clips.
    → probably the big issue here is how to show the user this is a common instance of the filter - a solution could simply be to show a “[multi]” keyword or something before it
    Ok this gets more complicated the more I think of it, there needs to be a way to copy/paste/remove it to new clips (maybe implement right click menu inside the filters panel?). Oh well, I should have made a separate suggestion thread for it, ignore this point for now.
