  Serious Copy/Paste Bug (Message 1 to 3 of 3)

In any of my scenes, if I press ctrl-c to copy, it works fine, but
pressing ctrl-p to paste crashes Moray every time. My file is only
recoverable from the last time I saved. Luckily, I don't have to reboot
the computer for this.

I have reproduced this error 4 times now.

ctrl-d for duplicate does work, but it's far less convenient.

BTW, this lost me 45 min of work on my IRTC entry today. Argh! :)

Hi Simon de Vet, you recently wrote in moray.win:

Hmm, I cannot reproduce this. Can you tell me what type of objects you
are trying to copy-paste. Also isn't Paste on Ctrl-V?

Please save more often.

Yeah, sorry.. that was a typo.

objects i've had this error with:
cube
rounded cube
sphere
rounded cyllinder
cylinder
heightfield
bezierpatch
object group
csg group

Now, I haven't tried every single object yet, but so far, I have gotton
the error with every object I have tried.

Oh, and I get the same error when using the copy and paste menu options.

And, like I said, the duplicate option does work, but is a bit time
consuming :)

Exact error: "This program has preformed an illegal operation and will be
shut down. If the problem persists, contact the program vendor."

The details say:

Lesson learned.. luckily, it was mostly fooling around, so I was able to
reproduce the work in about 15 min.... no great loss.... BTW, I still love
the new version!
