I'm trying to copy a simple hinge constraint system, but standard viewport copyingdoesn't take into account new parents/children and if I manually assign new children/parents I loose my hinge gizmos' orientations, which of course I can set manually, but I need to duplicate it up several hundred times so would rather not.

Is there a way to copy all the settings across from one hinge constraint to another? Including orientation?

are you using maxOps.cloneNodes? I think this one maintains the hierarchy (as far as i remember). :D

Although I can still clearly recall bumping onto a bug with that command.. you can't clone particle flow systems.

good luck!
