Copying screens copies components too

I copied screen, had camera, library, alert copied too, had to delete the double components, had to reconnect them.

Same with me. My Local Storage and timers were duplicated 4 times with same names. I need to rename them uniquely to avoid deleting the unnecessary one. Hope they will fix this bug. Note that I just copied 1 screen.

Hi all,
same problem, i confirm.

All Invisible Components are copied every time you create a new screen using a My Screen saved, even if in the screen saved none of the Invisible components are used.

I hope in a fixing because if you have many components this problem is very time consuming in order to delete all duplicated components.

Thanks
Kind regards

“Invisible components” are not related to a specific screen, and they act application-wide. You may use, or not in a screen an invisible component, but the option to use that is still there. So is not a mistake that exporting a screen will export all “invisible components” as well. Is just the way that these components are designed. So, there’s no bug to fix.

Hi there,
I can agree with a design choice but I am not agree with explanation.

The invisible components are related to the project and the screen are not entire project but indeed only a specific screen.

Moreover the components are exported also if in the screen them are not used, so, if we speak about a design choice ok, but otherwise is only a point of view.

About this, i will consider it as a the design choice, so, the actual behaviours is not a bug and it is not expected a correction.

Thanks
Kinds regards
