4.2.5 Cloning a spec sheet
4.2.5 TIP step-by-step
When you need to make an adjustment to an existing fit, and you want to document the change in the spec sheet history, cloning a spec sheet saves time and prevents transcription errors. Instead of re-entering every measurement from scratch, you duplicate an existing sheet and change only what's different for the new fit. The original spec sheet is never altered.
🔄 What Cloning Does
- ✅ Creates a complete copy of the selected spec sheet — span, pitch, grip type, layout, and notes.
- ✅ Prompts you to rename the sheet before the copy loads — so you can describe the new drilling right away (e.g.,
Refit pain ring finger 2026). - ✅ Saves the clone as a separate, independent record — changes to the clone never affect the original.
- ❌ Does not automatically link the clone to an arsenal ball — that's done separately.
🛠️ How to Clone a Spec Sheet
- Open the bowler's profile from the Bowlers list.
- Go to the Spec Sheets tab for that bowler.
- Find the sheet you want to clone — use the name and date to confirm you have the right record.
- Open the sheet and select the Clone option.
- When prompted, give the clone a new name that reflects the new ball or the change you're making.
- Spectre Cloud opens the renamed copy for editing.
- Edit any measurements, pitches, or layout details that differ from the original.
- Save the cloned spec sheet.
📸 Visual Walkthrough

Tip: The rename prompt at clone time is the moment your history earns its value. A quick, descriptive name on every clone turns a bowler's spec sheet list into a readable record of their equipment evolution — and makes future ball conversations much easier.
