Solved: Paste function does not work, if mouse cursor is outside drawing sheet boundaries

ReneRepina · ‎03-17-2021

Paste function does not work, if mouse cursor is outside drawing sheet boundaries. Why is that? Bug?

If you have mouse cursor inside the drawing sheet boundaries and copy a view (or anything else) and then exit the boundaries, you cannot paste until you go inside boundaries again.

This also causes errors with iLogic rules (if you use copy / paste commands), if mouse is outside the boundaries. I spend several house to figure out why code does not work (LoL).

Not sure why but I noticed it years ago so the behaviour is not new..

Use iLogic Copy? Please consider voting for this long overdue idea (not mine):https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-ideas/string-replace-for-ilogic-design-copy/idi-p/3821399

Hi,

Inventor 2021, 2022, and 2023 have resolved this issue.

I recommend updating to a later version.

Check the screencast with reproducing this command in 4 versions below:
