Copybase toolpalette issue concerning pre-selected entities
If one pre-select entities and then invoke the copybase command the only thing that is needed is specifying the base point afterwhich it will recognize the elements you had selected by mentioning the amount of entities.
This works no matter if you use the command by typing it or by calling it up by a key-combo.
However when I use the same command by selecting it from a toolpalette it ignores the pre-selected items and there for not only do I have to specify the base point but also all the elements I want it to copy.
You might say: "Well if it works in 2 ways so what if it doesn't work in a 3rd".
BUT the point is that there is no reason I can see why it shouldn't.
Anyone have any suggestion?

EDIT:
I can confirm the issue. Tool Palette commands do not accept pre-selections.0 -
Thank you, I'll put in a support request.

@Peter_DV:
Strange that this issue hasn't been addressed before. You would almost start to think that very few BricsCAD users rely on Tool Palettes.Attached is a small Lisp-solution that fixes the problem. The file should be loaded automatically.
