Selecting an element normally will select the actual element, but clicking and dragging will select all elements in the range, including the reference. You can&amp;#39;t move referenced elements, but you can copy them and get a stacked duplicate.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Copying multiple elements creates duplicates.</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/652752?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 01 Jun 2021 01:37:29 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:daa19b03-f2cd-4a38-b352-fc509af67507</guid><dc:creator>Alan Leigh-Lancaster</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Carl,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The cell was created by myself, as a rectangle. The text follows from the template I was given.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have not been able to replicate this in a new file, however this issue only started recently after a colleague edited the file, which may have caused the issue. Some of us still are using the V8iSS10? version of MicroStation, as we are upgrading to the Connect Edition.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The file has been through several MicroStation versions, as a template handed to us, to v8iSS10 then Connect Edition so there are a number of factors I can&amp;#39;t account for or replicate.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thank you for the support, I will leave this for now unless it comes up again.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My thanks,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The version is 10.15.2.11, I&amp;#39;ve added that to the original post as well.&amp;nbsp;I have not been able to replicate this on a new file. I will try reduce the file and submit that ASAP.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The table if from an older file, it is just rectangles arranged as a table.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks for your response,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Alan&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Copying multiple elements creates duplicates.</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/651774?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 26 May 2021 01:25:52 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:76c4dfe4-19a0-4557-8e12-040ecfb8bcb5</guid><dc:creator>Andrew Bell</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;From the video capture it&amp;nbsp;appears that you are using a version of MicroStation CONNECT Edition. Would you be able to provide the exact version number you have installed?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I am&amp;nbsp;also unsure what type of element you are copying here. It does not appear to be a Table but may have been produced using OLE tools. Would you be able to provide an example design file as I am unable to reproduce your issue in a new file.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
