Copy/Paste Templates for rooms

[FlawedTurtle]

Has anyone found a template builder or at least a way to copy existing rooms layouts? it gets tiring to click a hundred things in order to place a few bedrooms. I know some of the mods from non steam DF had it. If nothing else, is there a macro I'm missing to choose nearest object instead of having to click each piece of furniture?

When building furniture, there's a pop-up in the top left. Pick "use nearest" or however it's worded, and if you want to place several in succession without reusing the menu, tick the box below it as well. This will skip the whole selection process and whichever one is closest will be chosen to install.

We also do have macro recording and playback, but I haven't used it personally. That's how people did "templates" before dfhack a-la quickfort. Hopefully we'll have that for Steam at some point.
