I had a client that tried to copy one of their BI clips to the desktop. What happened was that the clip was actually moved to the desktop. The picture explains the confusion part. I realize that it is under "Move" but the menu says "copy only to" and gives you the impression you would be copying the file. So when they moved the file back, of course it did not show back up in the list until they did a repair/regenerate of the database.

I myself have never used this since I always use the convert/export method when saving a clip. I really don't see any need for this "copy only to" on the context menu unless I'm missing something here ??

I will write Ken and see what he says. BTW I used the new Snip & Sketch utility in W10 1809 to grab the shot....finally a way to capture the context menus using the 10 sec. delay capture.

This was resolved. I don't know what I did before, but now the "copy only to..." does indeed copy the file. I'm blaming it on the cold weather affecting my brain !
