Using the move/copy tool - my sketch does not get moved/copied

[Anonymous]

I made a circle and then I wanted to make a copy of that circle which would be 184 mm to the right. When I click OK, the tool disappears and the circle does not get copied. Why doesn't the circle get copied? Thanks.

The circle is constrained to the origin and this stops the Move\Copy tool from working. You have a couple of option, hover over the centre point until the coincident constraint is displayed and delete the constraint or select the circle and use copy, paste (Ctrl+C then Ctrl+V)

Edit @jeff_strater If you are creating a copy with the Move/Copy tool why is the constraint blocking the move. Seems like a bug when Copy-Paste works.

I couldn't figure out how to delete the constraint so I deleted the circle and made a new one away from the origin. I am experiencing the same problem with this circle. As soon as I hit RETURN or click OK in the below screenshot the circle will be moved and not copied even though I checked the 'copy' checkbox.

I think I see the problem and definitely a bug. @jeff_strater is one known? If you check Make Copy before selecting the circle it does not make a copy but if you select the circle first then enable copy it will make a copy! 

Ctrl+C Then Ctrl+V seems a lot easier way of making copies.

Thanks, @HughesTooling, good detective work.  I tried it once without reading your comments closely and thought:  "it looks like it works fine", but then went back and tried it in the order you said, and sure enough, it does not make a copy if you check the box before selecting the circle, no copy is made....

We'll look into it.
