AutoCAD 2015: Layout Tabs Lost Feature

[nrz13]

I noticed today that the new Layout Tab bar in AutoCAD 2015 has removed the capability to duplicate a layout by holding down the Ctrl key and dragging the layout to be copied.  The 5-click-move-your-cursor-all-over-the-screen method is still there, but obviously the 1-click method was superior.

Two steps forward, one step back. Autodesk standard apparently.

Be sure to report this bug to Autodesk, posting here is pointless:

If you are a subscription user, you can report through the Subscription Center as well.

I reported yesterday -- thanks for posting the link for others. 

[Shawn_Niles]

Thank you for posting this. It has been reported to the AutoCAD development team.

Thanks

To Shawn Niles:

Many thanks for your participation in this forum.

My question (As all readers would likt to know) Do problems with 2015 (Or any version)

that are reported in the forum find their way to programers ?

I see you did send this repoted bug.

I normally do not find as many problems with Autocad as I have with 2015 that really do affect

my ability to use the software in a productive way.

Thanks for any info that you may be able to share.

Hi Ron,

As Dean stated above, the following link is the best way to send in feedback on possible bugs or wishlist items:

http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/index?siteID=123112&id=1109794

That link goes directly to our development team so that they can review all comments. We also have several employees (such as myself) that spend time looking in the forums each day, and we do our best to reply where needed, and report what we find essential to our development team. For any users with subscription service, it is always a good idea to log a case as well with us. We can then link that case to anything we have logged internally, and help build a business case for a change in functionality.

I'm going to report this too. The Ctrl+Drag is too handy to give up.  

I also noticed I can't drag my layout tab into the sheet set manager anymore.

Wonder it that's related?

I'll report that while I'm at it.

[pendean]

It's one of my favorites too.

Right click funtionality seems to also have gone from layout tabs.

Hi,

>> Right click funtionality seems to also have gone from layout tabs.

Which functions do you miss?

[timni]

I don't see that only the drop down layout tabs?

[Alfred.NESWADBA]

Hi,

>> I don't see that only the drop down layout tabs?

can you upload a screenshot and mark the position you mean?
I don't understand what you mean by "drop down layout tabs".

[pendean]

Are you clicking on FILE Tabs instead? Not the same thing.

[timni]

Yes this is my misunderstanding.  Layout tabs were disabled for some reason and I mistook the fly out layouts off the file tab as layout tabs.  Still think it would make sense to have right click functionality over these.

[Alfred.NESWADBA]

Hi,

>> Still think it would make sense to have right click functionality over these.

Surprising (my day of miracles, seems so) ... I have right-click functionality on the file tabs. What happens if you right-click onto one of those tabs?

hi...I get the right click menu no problem...my issue is that you can no longer left click a tab while holding CTL key and drag it to create a new tab copy

[pendean]

That's broken in 2015 as has been reported at the top of the thread you are posting in: miss that discussion?
