    I also experienced unexpected and inconsistent results when attempting to copy and paste. I have a project where I'm trying to select everything on the artboard (for all layers) and copy and paste to a new art board.

    I noticed if any of the layers in the original artboard are locked, they failed to paste into the new artboard. In that case, I resolved the issue by unlocking the layers. But I would expect copy and paste to copy and paste locked layers too.

    The other issue I had that I couldn't figure out is that I pasted the art onto a new board so I could tile the art (duplicate it for printing multiple copies on a single standard letter paper). But if I resize the pasted result and then clone that result on the same artboard, the result again is missing random layers.
