Question

Hello - Reportiong a possible bug. When I copy / duplicate a page that already has exisiting content, the new duplicate is created with all objects and text slightly offset to the right, about 100px. This is only present in the most recent release. I've rolled back the install to 14.0.2 to temporarily resolve the issue.

 

Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

      Hi Rishabh,

       

      Thanks for checking in. I continued to investigate the issue to find out the problem was that the Adjust Layout feature was checked, in the Margins and Columns menu, when I previously adjusted the layout. I went back into the menu and unchecked the box, hit OK, and no more content resizes when copying / duplicating a page using (hold) alt + drag.

       

      Copying pages using alt + drag, while Adjust Layout was checked on, was producing odd results.

       

      Cheers -
