I like to use "Detect duplicates" only for a chosen selection - not for the whole drawing. How can I do that? My test doesn't works .... :oops:

Yes , I think that we need an option to detect duplicates on either the whole drawing or only selected area. For now though a workaround :
1.Make selection area of entities.
2.Place these on a temporary layer, using the property editor.
3.Make this temporary layer the only visible layer and now detect duplicates, making sure that you leave the 'Ignore layer' unchecked!
