Description
Expected Behavior
When I duplicate a block, the copy should immediately show up at the mouse pointer position.
Actual Behavior
When I duplicate a block, I just see a shadow. Only when I slightly move the mouse pointer does the copy of the block actually show up.
Steps to Reproduce
Duplicate a block, and don't move the mouse pointer.
Operating System and Browser
