Project editor - "Copy to..." acting up

In the project editor, about 1/2 the time when I right click on a drawing and use "Copy to..." ACE doesn't add it to the active project, 1/2 the time it does. I'd like it to do it all the time (which it used to). I guess this is a bug. Suggestions? I closed all other projects in the project editor as well.

joeyplumley (for lack of better name),

1. What version of ACADE / SP are you running?
2. Destination project can be any of the open ones: do you see the problem
(50/50) when the destination project is the active one or doesn't it matter?
3. Are you trying to make a copy of a given drawing and make it belonging to
the active project - i.e. source and destination project are the same?
4. "which it used to...": does it mean that the wrong behavior has been
noticed since a given upgrade has been installed?

Thank you.
Mauro

ACE2006, SP0, version Z.54.10

Active project is the only one displayed in the project editor. I have drawings from that project open. All drawings are in the same folder. So for #2, I don't think it matters, but I haven't tried anything else.

It only seems to do this when there's less than 3 drawings in the project (I just noticed this). It did it this morning when starting a new project (had 1 file in it). Now, I have 12 files in the project and don't have the problem.

To clarify, it copies and creates the file in the correct directory, I just have to right click and "Add Drawings" to the project.
