Copy and Move
Has anyone else noticed Copy now has 2 "modes" (Copymode) - it can be set to always multiple or single? That's ok (once you know) except the startup state seems arbitrary and once set in the on_doc_load.lsp it might change itself later in the session.Also, where picking then dragging entities (very handy operation) usually moves them, sometimes it changes itself to multiple copy instead. Has anyone else noticed - is there a setting for it?

Yes, it does seem a little confusing.For one thing:COPYMODE = ON means single copying mode, andCOPYMODE = OFF means multiple copying mode,which is the opposite of what you'd expect.And when COPYMODE = ON (single copy mode), there's a Multiple option in the COPY command, as well as the mOde option. And using that Multiple option isn't just for the current operation -- it turns COPYMODE off, the same as the mOde option would do.But when COPYMODE = OFF (multiple copy mode), there's no Single option; there's only the mOde option. It's not consistent.But it's an Autodesk invention, so we shouldn't expect logic.I haven't seen that thing you described with grip-moving. On my system, it always seems to do a simple move, no matter whether COPYMODE is on or off.
