Copy+paste button doesn't retain all characteristics. - alextweedly - 06-10-2022

1. Place a button.
2. Resize it.
3. Copy (via right-button menu)
4. Paste it.

Expected: a new copy of the button (at its current size) should be added.
Actual: a button at the original (default?) size is created.

I'm not able to reproduce this issue. Are you still experiencing it? Can you confirm that the element was copied after resizing it and not before?

Hi Alex,

Thanks for your bug report. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to reproduce your issue -- when a button is created, there is no "default" size; it is created at whatever size you draw it to be. When I copy a button (whether it's been resized or not) and then paste the button, it creates an exact copy. The new button is also placed in exactly the same spot as the original button.

If you instead copy the button, then resize it, and then paste, the new button will take the dimensions of the button at the time that you copied it.

If you are still seeing this issue, please let me know.

Thanks both.
No, I am not able to reproduce it with the latest version - either solved or user error in the first place.
