Description

Hello,

Thank you for all the work on this editor, this is really awesome!

I have 4 tile layers and 1 object layer. Ideally I would like to copy everything (tiles and objects) and be able to paste it somewhere else. So far when I try selecting all the layers (including the object layer) it is pasting everything but the objects.

Am I doing something wrong? Still pretty new to Tiled.

Thanks!

Research direction

Reproduce the reported case in the editor with four tile layers and one object layer, selecting all layers before copying and pasting elsewhere. Compare whether tile and object content is preserved; done when a combined selection pastes both kinds of content, or the expected behavior is documented.
