In the current public Beta of DTPO, duplicating an item via cmd-D produces two copies of the file.

Also, sorting via the “move” button in the auto-classify panel deletes every other replicant of the same file. Maybe it is a default setting, but unfortunately it prevents me from using the clever auto-classify panel at all. To be honest, I am actually a bit scared of it, because I put a lot of work into replicating files into several groups. Without this, I could start using the automatic classification, which would reduce my workload immensely.

Thanks for the bug report, it’s a known issue (see [viewtopic.php?f=3&t=10035](http://www.devon-technologies.com/scripts/userforum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=10035)) and will be fixed by the final release.
