### What would you like to happen? In Apache Hop, when multiple transforms are selected inside a Pipeline, the user should be able to right-click the selection (or any selected transform) and see a new context-menu action: “Create Sub-Pipeline” or “Create Mapping”. When triggered, the system encapsulates the selected transforms into a new artifact and replaces the selection with a single step referencing that new artifact. Key functional requirements: Visible only when 2+ transforms are selected. Create a new sub-pipeline/mapping containing the selected transforms and internal hops. Auto-rewire external inputs/outputs to the new reference step. Preserve transform configuration and metadata. Provide a minimal dialog for: artifact name, save location, “open created artifact” option. Acceptance criteria: After “Create Sub-Pipeline/Mapping”, the editor replaces the selection with one reference step. External connections remain valid and runtime behavior is unchanged. For multiple entry/exit points, the UI provides consistent ports or clear validation guidance. Rationale (why this matters): Speed: eliminates repetitive manual extraction work. Consistency: promotes modular design and reuse. Maintainability: keeps main pipelines readable and easier to evolve. Reliability: automated rewiring reduces configuration mistakes. ### Issue Priority Priority: 3 ### Issue Component Component: Hop Gui -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
