I noticed the same thing in 8. It's not really
needed as they already have zoom to selection (current and all views) as a
command. At least an option for auto zooming would be appropriate.
Really a pain in the @#$# when you editting a map for a specific layout, then
lose your original map view, because you forget to do a map previous between
pastes or something silly like that.
I've just added (or will as soon as my registration
gets accepted) a basic program to directionsmag that allows
stepping through upto 40 previous views for map windows called
zoom_hist that helps avoid that problem.

Subject: [MI-L] MI 8.5 Copy/Paste issue
Hello-
Has anyone else
noticed that in MI 8.5, when you copy and paste an object in a map window, it
automatically zooms to the object that has been pasted? Previous versions
always did this when the user copied/pasted multiple objects, but this seems to
be a new "enhancement" -- and it's quite frustrating!
Is this an option I
can turn off somewhere?
Thanks,
-Jason
