Hi Bradley,
hope the code is fine so far and you like it

Thanks Torsten,
There is cloning code in Asset/Display.html, which works, but is incomplete. Could you either update that code or remove it? Also the Clone method should just go into Asset.pm

Hi Brad,
is there code already? OK, will check it and sent another Pull request.

Thanks

Hi Brad,
changed the sub routine from Asset_local.pm to Asset.pm, but this part: (There is cloning code in Asset/Display.html) i cant find inside that file....can you pls point me to this? (possibly i'm not wake enough).

My mistake. It should be in Asset/Create.html
It's closely modeled on the cloning code in Ticket/Create.html

RT's _Overlay.pm mechanism was never meant to be used by distributed
extensions, and causes problems when used that way. Instead the code should
be loaded when the extension itself is loaded.

OK, removed from Create HTML all Clone Parts, no idea where they are from.

After looking again, I think I mostly like the old method better - I've been using it for years already, it's just not exposed in the menus. This callback to Elements/Tabs/Privileged works, we could just make it part of the default menu.

<%perl>
my $request_path = $HTML::Mason::Commands::r->path_info;

    if ( $request_path =~ m{^/AssetTracker/Asset/} ) {
        if ( ( $DECODED_ARGS->{'id'} || '' ) =~ /^(\d+)$/ ) {
            my $id  = $1;
            my $Asset = RTx::AssetTracker::Asset->new( $session{'CurrentUser'} );
            $Asset->Load($id);

            my $actions = PageMenu()->child( actions => title => loc('Actions'), sort_order  => 95 );
            $actions->child( 'clone' =>
                title => 'Clone',
                path => "/AssetTracker/Asset/Create.html?Type=" . $Asset->Type . "&CloneAsset=" . $Asset->id,
            );
        }
    }
</%perl>
