Add 'Create from existing file' option in Tape, Create/Edit

This option enables a user to quickly create a new measurement file with blank data using an existing measurement file as a template.

    a new measurement file with blank data

    Do you want to erase formula completely and left only: name, full name and long description? In this case we can lose some formulas user doesn't want to lose.

    We should keep the formulas.

    Formulas and actual measurements are both stored in the 'value' attribute, so is this possible?

    So, you propose to erase data if it is just a value and keep it if it is a formula?

    so is this possible?

    Yes, this is possible. I have an example that can determine this.
