About the "2.", I use to click on the OoB I wish to copy then on the next page I click on "Copy this OoB", write the name, <Enter> and click "creation".

I wish a third : the possibility to simply edit an existing OoB. This will easier modification on existing OoB.

Cheers,
GP.

Yeah but the problem is that is for a OOB that you can edit for both sides.
for example side A has a large OOB originally made up for a Campaign.
So has Side B has the same
Now Ok yes make a copy for side A and the delete what is not needed for the battle, but the side B will have to reedit his entire forces, that are available for a Battle of a Campaign.
If a Master OOB of each side is made up then a battle can be made up, and what Corps that are eligible to enter a battle, can just be copied and pasted, in any future smaller OOB in a smaller battle later on down the track, understand?

Yes of course that has to be done outside of the game parameters, I was talking about within the game menu parameters mate

My reply is so simple and easy, I doubt, humbly, understanding exactly what you mean :
When you copy an army, both armies are copied. Therefore you can switch from one to the other and make on each the modifications (delete, add, switch attachements) you intend to do.
Is that what you wish to do? Else sorry it is due to my limitated knowledge of english (I am french speaker, nobody is perfect  :lol:).

Friendly yours,
GP.

Side A and side B have differant OOB from differant games.

To avoid redoing the whole OOB for players who wish to play the same together with differant OOB's, a copy and paste function would make this easier. This cannot be done at WIndows Explorer level, it has to be done in game, or in the editor.
An OOB editor that can be editied in Windows Explorer using Notepad and the related to the changing the Troops on the battlefiled would be versitile.
The OOB editor is good but you cannot load diferant OOBs from differant battles, and copy and paste that to another battle to play against another player etc.

I hope I have explained this time.  :)
Translation is a problem at times here

Thank you, now I see what you mean and I agree with you, it is not so easy to do that.

We have, actually, to juggle in the Windows folder.
With existing:
xxxx_A.oob
xxxx_B.oob

yyyy_A.oob
yyyy_B.oob

Create a copy from xxxx_A.oob and rename it zzzz_A.oob
Create a copy from xxxx_B.oob and rename it zzzz_B.oob
We have create a new "zzzz" army.
