I’m currently working on a project and noticed that I’m having issues with copying a body. Once I copy the body, the original starts getting affected. It either disappears or gets replaced with the copy. Also when I let go of the copy to then drag it to another area, it doesn’t leave a copy where I released it. Thats super inconvenient since that feature made designing my projects more time effective in a timely manner. Please if this is a bug then I hope it gets fixed or if this is part of the new update then what’s the alternative.
