Paste erases concepts

Post by toml@communisphere.com »

Using version 5.04.01 with windows 7 and 6 gig.

When I copy a concept and paste it within the same concepts area, the entire area vanished.

Control z / undo does not bring it back.

What have I done wrong?

Best,

Tom

If the copy and paste is of the concept, yes it will replace it -- I presume this is what you are doing. We were not able to reproduce the problem with the undo, it always worked. Can you explain better what you mean "within the same concepts area"?

I have the same problem. To reproduce, create 2 concepts and then nest them together. create a third concept, copy or cut it, then click on the nested concept and paste. The copied concept replaces the nested concept, which is OK but a bit annoying (not really a bug). Trying to undo this event, however, does not recover the nested concept, which is a bug.

Keep up the great work,
Jason
