    Assuming your mouse buttons are not swapped, left click, hold and drag moves objects.

    Right click, hold and drag duplicates objects.

    If your mouse buttons are swapped in the OS mouse setup, then I would expect the functions to be reversed.

    I haven't had the issue that while editing objects they were being duplicated and a quick search of the forum hasn't had this reported.

    first I checked this, because I know the function to duplicate objects by moving them with right click, hold and drag. this function already works.

    Drag an object with the right mouse button and a duplicate is made when you release the button.

    Very odd behaviour...

    This happens to me all the time but especially when I am doing small adjustments to scaling, translating and rotating. I have learned to live with it for several years and through many versions of Xara (and many different mice, tablets and operating systems) and I don't know what I'd do without undo. I do believe I reported this anomaly in the forums and received a similar response but since it seems to be not a widespread issue (me and and now thee) the incredulity is not surprising.

    My experience is the same especially as I have emphasized with bold in the above. How can this just be happening to a select few of us? Can I also do this with 100 bills? Preferably offline of course.

    Hello to the Xara forum.

    That's very strange, but I have, for 2 days, exactly the same problem. When I move a shape, it is duplicated. And that's very very annoying...
    I own Xara Designer Pro X11. My question is : how can I download this version again ? As I would like to uninstall and install again this soft ?

    Thank you
