COPYING WINDOW AND DOOR MARKER INFO

Hello,
I am trying to find a simple way to copy the marker settings from one type of window to another (also for doors to). Eyedropper/Syringe changes the window type, which I do not want to do.

Is there an easy way w/o editing each different window/door type?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I just used the method described here and it worked perfectly, but ¿is there not another way to copy marker properties between doors/windows after all these years? It seems it´s not such a strange situation having to copy marker properties only between elements.

I was looking for an answer to this as well. It would be great if there was just a general "Marker settings" checkbox in Element transfer settings  under Door/Window for this. I am on version 24, has this improved in later versions?

 

Editing to note: Seeing what development has happened with zones and labels, and seeing that there is some kind of door/window label in the library, is it actually so that a door/window marker is considered a "legacy feature", and the supported workflow is actually to use labels instead of the markers?
