Illustrator (29.1) is making two copies rather than one when I option drag a single symbol and any number of non symbols together.

As far as I can tell all other combinations of selected objects work as normal .

This is seriously messing up my workflow so any help in fixing this would be greatly appreciated.

Do you possibly have Magnet installed in your system?

Thanks fro the reply, I've not come across Magnet before so I've not deliberately installed it and the system was brand new a couple of weeks ago so it's unlikely to be something that's a remnant from an old install.

Slight update, the issue is inconsistent, some times it happens, sometimes it doesn't.

Hello @Tony Wilson 67,

I'm sorry to hear about your experience. Would you mind confirming the version of the OS installed on your computer and if you have any third-party plugins or clipboard managers enabled so I can better assist you? Also, try running Illustrator under Safe Mode (Windows / macOS) and share your observations.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
