This problem has happened to 2 different AutoCAD 2014 users in our office at separate times.

The problem is if I have objects selected then right click and copy or copy with base point I have re-select the objects. This just started about a week ago, but it is NOT PICKFIRST (it is set to 1) I also tried PICKAUTO and PICKADD. I have the same results if I use Ctrl+c or Shift+Ctrl+c.

Also, if I first select the object and then type _copyclip or _copybase I do not have to re-select the objects... it works like it used to. I have read many forums but have found nothing with the same exact problem.

I restarted with out and .lsp routines thinking that may be the problem and no help.

I have not had any AutoCAD updates or windows updates recently.

I know I can just select the objects in a different order but after years of doing it one way I am hoping to keep things the way they were.

Thanks in advance for any help anyone might have with the problem.

Thank you for your reply.

I am using the latest SP, I double checked that hoping it would fix any problems.

Unfortunately it happens in all drawings.

Also, just being curious I made new shortcut in my .lsp for copy with a base point and it works the way Shift+Ctrl+C or right click and copy with base point used to work. This problem is very frustrating.

I just created a new drawing and sadly is still happens and as far as AutoCAD we have 2014 and 2015 in the office.

I just checked on a few other machines (using both 2014 and 2015) and they are not experiencing this issue. Only my machine and 1 other (both using 2014).

John,

Thank you for your help, I ended up doing a "Reset Settings to Default".
This worked and now I am in the process of putting thing back to how I Like them.

Thanks again for your time.
