Use settings from previously added measure for new measure

Spoiler
 

In QlikView, when adding measures, you could turn of totals for the first measure you added and after that it would remain off for every other expression you added.

I would like Qlik Sense to have similar functionality wherein any numeric formatting, justification, and/or totals settings from the last entered measure would be kept as default.

@John_Teichman  I took out the copy part, but the default settings bit is not in either of the links you posted.

Thank you for your feedback on ways to improve our product. While this is something we understand would be useful, it's not on the short-term roadmap. Please continue to show your support for this idea.

Fyi, the duplicate measure released in February 2020 also duplicates the formatting besides the expression.

Thanks,
Patric
