Problems with copying/pasting objects

Post by Paul D » Tue Sep 22, 2009 7:47 pm

Does anyone else have a problem with copying and pasting objects? Im trying to copy some objects from a stack and paste them onto a new one. The first set of objects I copied and pasted works fine. Then, when I copy other objects and paste, it pastes the first set of objects I copied. Is it not copying the other set of different objects? Am I missing a setting or property or something? It wont snap out of it, its driving me bananas!

Does the source stack have its scripts protected? Protected stacks can't be copied from for security reasons; just set the stack's passkey to the password and it should be fine.

If that doesn't solve it it may be a menu issue, unless of course you're using the Message Box.
