Hi!

If i Copy and paste within SD7 and also beween tabs, it seems to be double pastes at the same spot/place. If i after a paste delete the last paste or move it a little, it very often is, the same paste beneath it so i have to delete twice.

Also if a use Paste array it seems that the paste array window setting appearch twice after each other

Best regards

I am also seeing this problem some of the time. I thought I was hitting the button twice, but I've been careful and am still getting the behaviour.

We're unable to reproduce this - can you supply a project and step-by-step instructions to reliably reproduce the issue?

Note that if you copy and paste, a duplicate is created with a 1 grid space offset in X and Y. If you paste a second time, a second duplicate is created on top of the first duplicate. It could be that this is what is happening, particularly if you have a fast keyboard repeat speed.

Hi Rob!

I tried to attached 2 films showing what i mean. But they were to big in size.

I also send you the project file on which i'm working on containing this and the films. Hope they are useful..

Best regards

Update: we have analysed the information sent by Robert and have still been unable to reproduce the problem which suggests it may be machine-specific. The recommendation therefore is to check that Windows is up to date - perform a Windows Update or visit http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com - and also ensure that you're working with the latest version of Stardraw Design 7; select Help | Check for Updates.

We would welcome any further information from users who may be experiencing a similar effect and can provide step-by-step instructions to reliably reproduce it: for any issue, if we can reproduce it we can resolve it.
