Copying Blocks with Visibility States
I've created some blocks that have visibility states that I will need to create many copies of throughout the drawing. After I copy it, if I need to go in to edit something in the block, it now shows multiple copies of the same set of visibility states. If I save it like that, then all the added visibility states appear as options in the properties palette rather than just the one original. It seems that this doesn't happen if I just insert the block instead of copying it. Is it not possible to copy a block without this happening? We're transitioning from AutoCAD and I'm used to just copying blocks as needed rather than taking the time to find them and insert them.

I copied in model a dynamic block and existing visibility state was maintained, I used the properties to change the state of a copied block. So don't understand the problem. Are you using Bedit and trying to make a new block ?

Thanks for taking a look at that!
When I copy a block and use it everything is fine. No problems there and no problems using the properties to change and modify. But if after making copies I need to make a change to the block structure in BEDIT, then it creates multiply copies of the visibility states and after the block is saved it will then show all the copies of the visibility states.

Sounds like a bug. Have you filed a support request, Bricscad are good at respondings to support questions, Not necessarilly fixing till next version.
