Hi, since the 3.9.1 (now 3.15.5) version I have this problem: when I copy / paste objects with the windows clipboard (ctr c / ctr v), some layers of pasted objects are lost.
The layers of the new objects are exchanged casually.
This is serious for a fee CAD design, i know others free with less hassle.
Thanks Pasquale

Could it be that you are pasting layers which already exist in the target drawing? If so, be sure to tick "Overwrite layers" in the options tool bar.

If you cannot solve this problem, please attach your drawing file and explain what you are doing. I'm almost certain this is a usage / understanding problem, not a bug.
