(You can copy individual gate parts by holding shift as you grab them. I'm considering adding ctrl as a another modifier, meaning 'grab the whole column'. I understand that these modifiers are not discoverable.)
(At the moment, when I want to make a really large repetitive circuit, I copy the URL into a text editor and do my copy pasting there. I understand that it would be totally ridiculous to expect users to do that.)

- wybiral 10y agoBeing able to copy & paste a column would speed up design. Certain quantum algorithms rely heavily on repeated application so not having a shorthand feels tedious. Ideally, from my perspective as a user, I'd like some kind of selection box that I can drag over a portion of the circuit and duplicate everything highlighted. PS: I like that you maintain the circuit in a URL linkable form. Very handy!
- Strilanc 10y agoThere's a few gates that you can only create by editing the URL ;). Examples include the X-axis post-selection gates "|+⟩⟨+|" and "|-⟩⟨-|", some square-wave gates "X^⌈t⌉" and "X^⌈t-¼⌉" that were made redundant by the counting gate, the impossible universal-not gate "__unstable__UniversalNot" [1], and the error injection gate "__error__". 1: http://physics.stackexchange.com/a/247178/911 http://physics.stackexchange.com/a/247178/911
