Copying drawings

I have a number of charts with drawings that are being copied to other charts.

I have enabled the setting "Allow Modification of Chart Drawings from Other Charts" because I need to be able to modify the drawings on the other charts.

The issue I'm having is that sometimes when I move the drawing on the secondary chart, it creates a duplicate. For example, if I have a line drawn on primary chart and this is copied to secondary chart, and on secondary chart I drag the line drawing, it will create a duplicate of the line and leave the original line in the location that it was prior to me moving it. When I view the "Line ID" for the two lines, the ID is identical. Also, no duplicate is created on the primary chart, it only creates a duplicate on the secondary chart.

The issue isn't specific to one chart or chartbook; it keeps happening across multiple charts and chartbooks.

We do not see this problem and we have never heard of this problem before. We would not know why it is occurring in your case. Are you able to consistently reproduce it?

Yes it consistently happens. Can I send a screen recording somehow?
