Bug Description
Cut, copy, paste operations frequently give odd results: frames are positioned randomly, even moved from scene to scene.
The most suspected bug triggering event is deleting frames (the most needed operation in stop-motion frame editing).
To replicate the bug:
1. Download the attached project.
I created it on purpose, with 3 scenes (A, B and C) and 10 frames per scenes. Every frame is marked A1, A2, A3... B1, B2, ...
2. Open it in Stopmotion.
3. Duplicate all the frames of scene A, by dragging every frame on the preview area below the timeline.
4. Move to scene B, by clicking on the clapboard marked with 2.
5. Delete all the odd frames (5 frames: 1,3,5,7,9). To delete, select a frame and press the DEL key.
6. Move to scene C.
7. Duplicate all the frames of scene C.
8. Check scene A: what a mess!
I attach the result of my editing.
The first five couple of duplicated frames of scene A are OK.
The second five couples are a mess: they include the first 5 frames from scene C.
The list of images inside the .sto archive is missing 5 numbers (27,29, 31,33, 35) corresponding to the 5 replicas of the first 5 frames of scene C.
